New parts arrived today. Going to have to redo the intercooler plumbing since the FMIC will be coming out.

make sure to shim them for air gap and watch out for the bolts that will come close to the radiator tank.

Thanks, been paying very close attention to those instructions.

Slow process but I got the pistons all in.

Waiting on a RN pan from JoshV70.

Stripped one of the 4 bolts that hold the oil pump in so I am going to pull that and heli-coil it. 88in/lbs isnt very much. I have it in there with some bite but I dont feel comfortable knowing the engine heat cycles will eventually let it go.

Yeee, nice. Wanna do my engine for me? lol

If you can wait till mine is done then watch it get rebuilt at a turtle pace.

There are plastic plates that mount to the sides of the car under the cover. The bumper skin slides onto them. They bolt right into the factory hole. The rest of the bumper bolts right up. Fairly easy swap.
