Now is that fd uim hot or what? Look how much space is underneath! Its incredible, you don't have to pull **** off to check for leaks etc. Too bad this engine doesn't get it..

how far up did you paint the oil filler neck, or did you? My mechanic painted my engine with a red and black theme, and he painted red all the way to the top of the oil cap to the threads. I"m sure there's red paint chips in my engine due to them coming off when the cap is turned. hope the same doesnt happen to you...

what all did you do to it when you rebuilt it? how hard was it to fit that FD UIM to the engine? you ought to polish that up, bling bling.

Intake ports were cleaned up, exhust was ported to match the sleeve. Fd corner seals were used, RA seals/springs, ofcourse a new gasket and spring set also.New bearings were also installed. The fd uim is not going on that motor, and yes its going to get polished
