putting engine back in-where does this go?
 
I have started to put my engine back in, so here's where I will need ALL your help. I labelled everything but a few tags are missing http://www.pelicanparts.com/ultimate/frown.gif. There are two things so far I don't know.

1. On the drivers side cam housing my old housing had a sensor on it with two wires, the new set for the pressure fed set doesn't have this. What is it, and do I need to take it off the old one a replace it?

2. This is a little harder to explain. On the wiring harness that exits out the rear of the engine there are 3 seperate prongs that are the same, they have a double spaded, self locking clips. One goes in the center of the engine about 6" above the tranny housing, another goes up to the right (passenger side) just under the airbox housing.

Where does this third one connect??? I can't seem to see a place for it.

Sorry for the long post and the fact that I don't know what most things are.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Shawn...you ask:
"On the drivers side cam housing my old housing had a sensor on it with two wires, the new set for the pressure fed set doesn't have this. What is it, and do I need to take it off the old one a replace it?"

This "sensor" is the Thermo-time switch. It actuates the cold start valve. Your new left side chain cover should have a tapped hole for this. It may have a threaded plug in it as shipped from the factory. Have a look.
