Redoing the looms is a lot of work. I did it on my 4.6 in the Bird...after that I decided the SVT's was fine on the swap, lol.
Side note: Did you make it on RFP?

how much miles does the 3 liter engine have?
Thats not RTV on the LIM is it?
Besides, this is a port-matched 3L, so it's supposed to be there.

yes, it's a long story. It's cleaned up better than that now though.
Just mention to them that you put it there, not me lol
No, it's not lol. Gasket material -> trace bugzuki plates -> exacto.
I asked if it was rtv hoping you would say no its polyester urethane.
Yikes!
Now all I am waiting on is the MSDS headers and the mounts.
THE GASKETS DO NOT HAVE ANYTHING ON THEM. This is a port-matched 3L, so when I had the motor done, the "maker" had prepped it and where the gaskets go was another piece of metal that covered up the injector slots that were not going to be used. Dad pulled THAT off, NOT the gaskets. the sealant was used under that and we just placed the gaskets ON TOP of that piece of metal and then the LIM. Once the bolts were in, the pressure from the LIM going down on the block squished out some of the sealant... WHICH HAS NOW BEEN CLEANED UP.
understand me now? I know it was a confusing statement in my response back to ZXT.
anyways, i got new "clips" for the socondaries rod, mine were pretty old and shot. and I've also got the hardware for the foglights. Gonna work on that tonight and maybe clean the UIM up and get a few more things on the motor. I'm really only waiting for headers and the motor goes in.
just a small update: Headers and whatnot are on! the motor will be going into the car this weekend.
Cellphone pics FTL.
Will post more of the bumper and engine with real camera tomorrow.
