The idle control valve is the part I left off. Mayby I am thinking crazy but I dont recall anything but the injector rails being fed fuel on mine? I am totally drawing a blank on this one. anyone?

Scott, your later model motor might not have a cold start injector? It has a flexible line running to it from the fuel rail.

Here is a good clue to what I am doing. Maybe you will figure it out from this.

In the near future I will be offering my 97 engine out of my car up for sale.
Also my complete supercharger set up will be up for grabs. Yes it will have everything to make it work. Plug and play baby!
I may sell the engine complete with all the supercharger setting on it.
This will be a turn key complete opportunity for someone to drop in a supercharged motor.

Coming to the classifieds near you soon! LOL

you didnt say anything about the tranny so its either going to be another UZ or a 2jz.

We have it narrowed down to that.

my guess is stroked 2UZ with whipple or centrifugal
