Just dreading putting them on.
And those wheels.
Flop, It took me 3 days to knock it out.
1 day was taredown.
2 day was clean up and routing all my oil cooler lines and the LS vtec line to a stealbraided line.
3 day was putting it all together.
A tip. Spend $25 and get some discount brake part cleaner in the can and high temp RTV . They are 3 bucks right know. That should buy alot for 25. I cleaned everything but the head . The studs were easy to put in. Dont forget to torque to 10 LB in the block. Very important. Clean the block threads.
Also, the two guides on the head, put them in after the studs.
What I did was placed the studs in place and with a rubber handle screwdriver, I placed the guides on the studs and lightly tap them down the studs. With a 11mm closed end wrench. Slide through the studs and over the guides, light taps on the wrench and the guides will go in place.
Thank you much for compliments on the car. She is coming alone. I'm gonna start working on the interior now.
Hit me up if you need help.
Drive it HARD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
