what fitting? the only one i can think of id for the oil feed, get it from TTR
I need the -6 large coolant tee the one that comes in the garret kit
The large fitting that goes into the boss for the oil drain
And the fitting that goes in the block for the oil feed. I believe it is a -3
Atpturbo says they have everything I need

Sorry, any spark plugs will do, just make sure they are a step colder and you gap them correctly.
Those AC Delcos will do, but are they stock or are they any colder than stock? You can buy a spark gapper at autozone/walmart for like a dollar. You just make sure the contact points on the spark plugs are spaced out the correct amount. .34 is what was recommended for my build by Vince, and I can't image yours being much different.

I am up college and the ic piping with bov is at home. All I did was use the same design as the stock bosch one and stick my greddy in the pipe and clamp it down with a small piece of rubber hose. about 1 1/4" long. Two hose clamps. It is really tight on there and I am going to recirculate it back just like stock design. For now or course till I re route maf and do atmospheric.
Funny u mention a spark plug gapper I have one on my key chain cause I think they look cool lol. So I will def check the gap in a lil bit. Getting ready to get some alcohol to get shwasted tonight haha.
IT IS MY B DAY Only one more year than I am legal to drink lol

haha well I am using the greddy as a recirculating so I am not re routing the maf. I am going to do that in the future so right now I am going to do the same as the stock bosch bov. Just with the greddy

looking soon I hope. Whenever my flywheel and tob come in as soon as I can I am getting my car to my buddies shop to do the clutch. The shop charges 350 and he is doing it there for 200 for me, so I think that is a good deal.
^MP how u like the new car...very jealous lol, did u get rid of your old one
