Got some more work done today.

Since I was removing the K-Member, I decided to use the factory strut tower along with some come along straps to help hold the motor. I put them near the ends where it had more support from the towers. Worked perfect!

The crank pulley has 3 bars that I used 2 of them to hook to.

With the engine supported, I unhooked the steering and dropped the K-Member.

That left room to pull the oil pan off so I can have fittings put in properly without punching holes in it and using the tap. I am not a fan of that technique.

By removing the K-Member and motor mounts, it made it much easier to get to the headers. For the passenger side I had to CAREFULLY coerce the A/C line a little to get to the front bolt. But it went easy enough with little drama.

Here's a good shot of the front factory Wideband O2's.

That's all for now. Will keep updating as things come together.

Hell yeah! This is awesome. Are you getting the motor built too before you install it?
