to completely pull appart both seats and re assemble one??
it took about 4 hours to do it..
the only hard part is removing and replacing the metal hog rings that hold the material to the base..
but to cheat slightly on the difficult to get ones i used nylon cable ties instead of the metal rings

tis very sad... for some time that car was his pride and joy... and probably several other peoples in it's nearly 30 year life.. which just ended...

I feel the same way about the silver EA I just sold though mine was returned to factory and sold as registered and running to a young couple in need of a car and they love it...

good news!!!
the ed is running again.. :D
got the supercharger back this morning + new bov.(purple bov. :shock: thanks tim.. :lol: :lol: )
mounted the charger back up ,connected everything.
but had to do some modifying to the intake pipe to acommodate the new bov.
chopped of the old piece of pipe where the bosch bov was and got out the trusty die grinder and bored the hole out.. then ground the pipe shape into the bov flange for good fitting..
payed dazzle a visit and he was good enough to weld the flange to the intake for me.(thanks dazz).

God to hear she's back to full health!

The purple isn't that bad stands out a tad if you can look past all the chrome and the supercharger it's self.

Nice work on the intake,

Regards,

Michael
