Update:

well guys... its the half way point... well sorta. there is nothing left to remove and now it is time to start putting it back together... which is what I started doing tonight.. well injectors anyways. need to make a shoping list and get at er tomorrow night. expect a good update tomorrow for sure.

Oil supply line:
I am using 1 of 3 of the oil supply passages located in the back of the block. using the driver side one since the block heater blocks access to the first one. you can jsut see the top of the fitting peeking out behind the coolant line


Fuel Injectors:
Fuel rail removed:


Compare:



Old:


New:


Old harness: new one in the making tomorrow.
