Replacing the FPR and injectors ?
Anyone have a link for how to lay the whole plenum including the air horn and throttle body onto the glass ? Last time I replaced these parts I separated these components and totally removed the plenum .

Re: Replacing the FPR and injectors ?
Given the lack of a replacement ZR-1 windshield at the moment I do everything in my power to not lay anything on it, even a socket. I'd be more tempted to pivot it to lay on the driver side wheel.

Re: Replacing the FPR and injectors ?
I have to stage the plenum on the glass after taking precautions . I have transfer from my wheelchair to sitting on the right front tire . From there I can pickup the plenum and sit it back onto the injector housings . When I initially pulled it my son removed it and set it aside for me . He wasn't around to do the reverse . My windshield is really nice .

Re: Replacing the FPR and injectors ?
Managed to knock it out Friday and make Carlisle on Saturday . Once I got into it everything started coming back to me . It had been sixteen years since I last did this same job on my previous 91 . A bit more involved with it being a ported LT5 verses an unported one .
