Thread: Making a junk yard run...parts list

So here is my list for my topswap parts that I need. Are any of these specific to the '97?
Balancer
Idler pulleys
MAF
VAC lines/connectors
Valve Covers

I already have the supercharger and heads. I'm going to be getting an oil cooler also for my trans.

Are there any other sensors that I need? And like I asket at the top, Is the MAF specific to the '97 ?

just making sure you know you need the entire coil pack bracket, not just the tensioner that goes with it.

i thought the '97 already had the right bracket?

the rear idler pulleys (alternator bracket) is 97-98 specific. You don't need them anyways

The maf will be 97/98 specific.
The vacuum, dependins on what year your SC is from will determine which lines it gets. however you'll never find good likes from a 97 at the yard, so I'd suggest doing it up as a 98+ anyhow.

I don't need the idler pulleys to run the supercharger belt?

The rear pulley/bracket is under the alternator and for the accessories only, not the SC. Keep the stock one you had.

alright, gotcha.
Bill-The vac lines you say to plumb them like a '98. I don't have the supercharger from a 97-98. Here is what I was instructed to do. 97 GT top swap - Grand Prix Net

Ahhh. Hutch knows what he's talking about. However there's another way to do the trans vacuum. There is a cap that plugs the second vacuum port in the side of a 98+ TB where your trans is currently connected. If you pulled the plug and put in a second nipple, that would keep you from having to pull vacuum on top of the charger. Both of them are vacuum from after the maf and after the throttle blade.

The vacuum routing I was speaking of had to do with the LIM nipple under the nose of the supercharger. The way that should be routed is to put a T at the nipple on the LIM. Then run one side to the map sensor on the back of the supercharger, the other line runs to the fpr and supercharger control soleniod. In 97 that soleniod and FPR were run off a metal tree on the side of the SC by the TB. Not the plastic one on top.
