No, the engine isn't finished yet. I only got it to crank over with the starter last Friday. I still need to delete the PS EGR port parts and weld the 3100 EGR tube to the #2 primary.

The installation is MUCH easier with bolts than the studs I'm using. The driver's side is a pain. You WILL need to bend the oil dipstick tube to get the header flange between it and the cylinder head.

And, if you have a T-5, the slave cylinder heat shield gets removed, the slave and connecting tube get heat shielded, and you will need washers and nuts to reinstall the slave cylinder to the bellhousing. The slave heat shield WILL prevent the header from lining up (#6 primary hits on it).
