After I posted this I did a little research and found that the 5.8L lower manifold is wider than the 5.0L. I thought for sure I had a 5.8L set laying around but I must have sold it.

well thanks to SnwMnkys, and a good sized pay check.
I got some stuff done yesterday! and im back where i started WOOHOOO!
I bought a 1'' spacer,so as soon as it's made it should be on it's way and heir in about a week or so.
got the lower intake on,with the injectors and i put new Orings on them,got my fuel lines all hooked up and moved the battery over to the left.(i cant wait to do my tube front end so i can loose that core support)and put my dissy back in.
found these on a older jeep
is there anything i can do about this air pump??? it's locked up and it's not going to be used.

gf posted those for me
guess what showed up today!
Im a bit nervous about starting it....
worried the computer is going to fry or something.... figured i could start it without the O2sensors, but wanted to wait for the parts to show up so i can start rueling out problems.
if it runs grate im going to drive it to my family's cabin up in the uinta's in WY.
2hr trip there...think it will be up for it?
what ya think my MPG will be? 3 speed auto,38.5,5.13 gears,60-65mph no tach.
im betting around 11.

What fuel pump are you running? Have you checked your vacuum? When I first got mine running it did the same thing because I hadn't hooked up the vacuum lines.

got my vac line's hooked up, but could have them wrong. ill check it out.
well, it ran for a few min's, ideled and reved up! still have some cind of problem.
it will only start if i push on the gas,and it rev's about like my carb did.(im guessing it's cus my o2 sensors are unpluged,and timing is a little off) and im going to test #2#3 injector's to make sure there firing.
i did the spray bottle test on the exhaust and 2 and 3 where not near as hot as the other's.
got my check engine light to work,(forgot to wire up the power)
on a sad note, lol i forgot to move my oil line away from the exhaust mainifold's..4 quarts of oil all over the drive way... sorry erik...

well, wired up the O2 sensors, fired right up! stayed running,push on the gas and revs right up like it's nothing...so i took it for a spin around the block. noticed a few thing's.
1,i need to strap down my battery before i set off
2,it has a CRAP LOAD MORE POWER!!!
3,i need a traction bar for sure now.
4,it has a ideling problem,just chugs and ides up and idels down. (i think it's just the computer learning everything) when i get home ill try to run a test on it.
that made my day tho!
