Hks 5layer metal head gasket arp studs 550cc injectors and aem fuel regulater and filter lexus v8 maf. Here is the progress we made today. this is before we cleaned the motor then some after cleaning Had to change it to front sump oil pan and pump had to grind the pump some so the rod wouldnt hit it during revolution had to also bend the oil dipstick to fit the pan properly thing is gonna have to remark the stick to get the accurate reading again gonna do some more tommorow like install the hydraulic line for the slave to the clutch and get the engine bay cleaned up prep everything. Kinda had a accident at the end of the night thats gonna slow the motor dropping in gonna get it taken care of though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
