Solution to iacv.
Putting in a little more work on the TB/IM situation.
Looks like I should be able to build a bracket and redrill a few holes to get the K series IM on the F22 head. Should be pretty easy.
As for the TB and IACV, I tapped the TB where the IACV air port is, since its going to be blocked off by the K series IM TB flange.
Now, I will route this air line to a remote IACV plate, mount the IACV plate to that, and then re-route the air back to the IM plenum through a hole I will drill and tap, once I decide where the best place will be (clearance issues mean I will wait until the IM is on the head in the engine bay before I decide).
11/32" drill bit for 1/8ths 27TPI NPT.

Tap about half way down.
Should thread in about half way by hand.

Probably end up using these sweet fittings I got from Greg @ Go-Autoworks.com. Love his stuff.

And heres an inside view of the IACV air port in the TB, and where I've tapped into it for the remote IACV plate.

Put in some more work on the remote IACV situation.
Fabbed up a remote plate. Marked the holes for the bolts with a pencil, drilled with 17/64ths drill bit, tapped to M8x1.25, slid the bolts in, painted the gasket, bolted it up, dropped the plate off, drew a cross through the middle and there you see it.

Drilled the two holes for the air ports with 11/32nds, tapped with 1/8th NPT.

All hooked up! I drilled a 11/32nds hole in the bottom of the PRB IM, and tapped it for 1/8th NPT. Of course I will shorten the lines. It looks like I should be able to mount the IACV plate under the IM away from everyones eyes. Its pretty ugly!
