You cannot use the low port manifold on the high port DET. It will stick up too high and keep your hood from closing.

Like I said, you should use a USM TPS.

There are a number of people on the SE-R mailing list who have installed a DET in a OBD-II car. The harness does indeed need some modification, but almost all the connectors should still work if you change to the later model distributor.

Here is some information regarding installing a DET in an OBD-II car:
