Got some more work done the last few days. Pulled the inner fender out, and pulled the one out of my 91 marq. will be running a 92+ airbox and maf, so it should all look pretty factory. Got the 3g bolted in, was going to re clock it, but I like how it looks with the connectors hidden. Also will be swapping the stock EGR spacer (which has been bored to 67mm) for a lightning one I have. Although it wasn't leaking, I just happened to have a lightning one sitting around, so I figure now is a good time to swap them out.
I'll also be doing a few things while everything is apart. 1" intake spacer, deleting the EGR, cleaning everything up, new cap+rotor, plugs, wires, coil, air and fuel filters, and then it should pretty much be ready for the road.
3G in
Inner fender out,
Inner fender next to the 91 inner. Just need to clean it up.
It was pretty clean behind the fender,
But I decided to paint it. 6 coats of truck bed liner later,
You can see how thin the stock EGR spacer gets when it's bored to 67mm. Also note the EGR port no longer lines up properly.
Lighting spacer is also a lot thicker.

Deleting the EGR is not a good idea and the engine will run like crap, unless the ECM is specically tuned to turn EGR functions off.2003 Town Car Signature - 3.27 RAR, Dual exhaust and J-mod - SOLD 9/2011
