you can mount the solinoids almost anywhere, most mount level with the intake

yea most mount on the fuel rails and use the actual fuel rail to intake bolts. the test port is near the back of the intake manifold, at least thats where it is on mine but it might be different casue i have a 93. either way follow the fuel lines from the fuel rail and it should prolly be on the rear crossover tube.

ok here... dont pay any attention to the oil pressure crap.

notice the crossover tube going from the right fuel rail to left. its on that downhill slope. had a plastic cap. run it to that.

I'd DEFINATELY heat wrap it, or better yet run it further away. There are some EXTREME horror stories of nitrous lines becoming too hot.

I agree, technically that's enough room, but I like to err on the safe side.

try and get it further away somewhere, you can run it inside then run it through the firewall with a grommet even too.

lol. thatd be cool if you could get custom ones that say like "HOLD THE F*CK ON"lol

either way, the Shrader valve is the test port. it connects right to the fuel rail crossover tube just like it does in that picture i posted.
