    This is very sad to hear Ken...:3d_frown: She should hold out for TX2K9 and longer though. Your on stock boost right? Save the money and one day you should rebuild her fully! Check your oil often so you do not develop rod knock like I did... :3d_frown:

    Question for smart ppl of SM. Can I use a 2.0mm HKs metal headgasket for my build? I had 0.127mm taken off the block and haven't had the head shaved as of yet. What would need to be taken from the head? Or would it be okay to take the minimum off the head and just have lower compression...

    The sad part is that I even have a shit load of parts diagrams my dad printed off for almost every part of the engine. Shows where they go and part numbers!

    When you talk about checking clearances on the new oil pump what do you mean exactly? Like make sure all the moving parts clear the pump or is there more involved like measurements? I mocked up the new oil pump and new aN line. Had to modify the pan on the side with the elbow aN bend. Seems...
