Thanks guys yeh the picture serves the purpose. I was beginning to wonder if i offended anybody here. Seems like I can hardly get an input to my posts any more. Used to be pretty easy. Maybe its my name on here 150ford. Maybe that turns people off I dont know. Thanks again for your info that clears things up a bit. Be prepared for more stupid questions. I am learning more every day.
Look up at top at the FAQs. Those are instant answers to your questions, although it seems around here that people will still answer newb questions with enthusiasm. Makes it a great place.

Joel -- FYI, I tried to answer your PM, but got a message back saying your PM inbox is full...
"150ford has exceeded their stored private messages quota and cannot accept further messages until they clear some space."
Looks like a lot folks answered you!
EDIT: Here was my reply though:
No problem -- the "foil delete" is removing the foil insulation from the hot-side I/C tube (driver's side between the spider & I/C). The CCV is re-routing the crank-case vent from the coupler between the two halves of the intake tube and running an extension hose down & back someplace you choose venting it to the atmosphere. This keeps your boots from getting all nasty oily & dirty. There are a couple variations of the CCV using traps & filters, but most of us just vent it at a convenient spot. Mine runs all the way back to the rear axle. Some choose to just run it down the back of the block (the way International's T444E engine is done). If you need more info on either of those, let me know.

Stewart posted my link to my CCV mod so I guess you know how I did mine. I'm very pleased with it. Just remember, the o-rings on the doghouse WILL need to be replaced. Just count on it. Get the kit from Guzzle or if you need some in a pinch, go to a plumbing or hardware store and ask for 1.5" OD x 1.25" ID o-rings. Foil delete is a piece of cake too, cleans up the engine bay and you can hear the turbo whistle a little bit more.
