1983 Scrambler "STUMP JUMPER". Frame off, 5.3 Conversion.

I'm needing some help.
I'm trying to find the adapter that will attach my Vintage air 2" defroster hose to the slots in the Cowl. I have them on my 81 Scrambler and I'm almost certain that they came with the Vintage air kit I bought back then but now they act like they don't know what I'm talking about. Help.
 
She's alive!!!!! STUMP JUMPER IS ALIVE. The sound is awesome. I did take a iPhone video but I have no idea how to post it.
 
Dennis, that smile at the end says it all. Congratulations! She sounds great!!!

:woohoo::bacon::woohoo:
 
Thanks , I'm kinda proud but it looks like I'll be pulling the intake manifold off. Pulled a P0332 code, knock sensor, and started looking around and found a spliced up harness just as it goes under the manifold. I don't know how I missed this when I had the engine out. Anyway It's probably a 3-4 hour job and I'm going to change both knock sensors and the harness and be done with it.
Also sitting at idle it's overheating but if I speed up the engine it cools right back down so I think its more of a low RPM circulation problem than anything else. I installed a brand new water pump and thermostat before I installed the engine and the Advanced Adapters Aluminum Radiator and electric fan seems to be working fine. Beside since it cools down when I speed up the engine It really leads me to believe it's more circulation related. Do they make a high volume water pump for this engines?
 
Yay!!! That does sound nice!, not sure about the host of this new motoring channel but nevertheless I am impressed!!

Do you have it completely full and void of all air bubbles? I have had some strange issues with it not being "burped" and not doing what was expected.

Dennis, AWESOME!!!!

What is the logo where the fender and body come together? Is that a custom etched STUMP JUMPER?
