what bolts to the back side of the valve cover(ie the side facing the intake ITBs) ...i have a disassembled motor and am doing some "custom" work to it but didnt get to see the motor as a whole so dont want to remove anything that i actually need....I will be running a fmic when the motor finally gets rebuilt and installed in my 87 4wd wagon(will be converted to awd during the motor swap..more to come on that) ...

I'm pretty sure they are for the top mount intercooler.

It looks like the one on the left is for the throttle cable bracket.

There's a Gusset that mounts to the Transfer case and then to the motor,, below all that if your using a gtir driveline

confused what does that have to do with the valve cover?:confused:



any way does some one have a close up picture of their valve cover with TMIC removed? specifically towards the space between the valve cover and ITBs?

ahh ok, i see what you're asking now :)

looks like it's just for a bracket to hold wiring:
