ALl of these from an 85 Gt:

#1 Located on the passnger side between the battery box, and the strut tower. 3 wires coming out of it.

 -

#2 Im trying to figure out what the box thing is. It has one red wire that goes to the clip shown below it, which attaches to the start selinoid, and a black wire that goes to ground....but WTF is that rectangle thing....
 -

#3 These 3 plugs are located on the drivers side, in front of the strut tower. a close up is below this pic...

 -

closeup of #3

if you guys need anymore info on any of these let me know and I will get what i can. Thanx

The closeup pic # 3 --- The black one on the right looks like the connector that goes to the EVP Sensor on the EGR Valve

that first one sorta looks like the EEC-IV test port (where you plug in the code scanner).

Is #2 ceramic? Hard to tell from that picture.

Local pick-n pulles usually have a 85GT or two around that you can go take a peep at.

The top pic looks like the plug that goes into the electronic regulator, mine's black though so I could be wrong. In pic 3 & 4, the black two prong connector goes to the throttle positioner on the holley 4180. For when you turn on your a/c it gives you a faster idle. The other two goes into a harness which was very hard for me to follow but it crossed over the front of my engine to the passenger side of the car. I was trying to match the wire colors, but after 18 years, all the wires are the same grimey color.
