[attachmentid=413905]

My project has now advanced to the point that I can concentrate on the engine. I am pulling the distributors for belt replacement and vent kit installation, pulled the injectors for ultrasound, ordered new sparg plug wires and plugs and caps, and it looks like I will need to get new valve cover gaskets. Other than a new main oil seal when i put the conversion flywheel on, is there anything else I should be looking for? Should I replace the crank sensor and O2 sensor or do they usually survive the transplant? This rubber is ripped. Do I just replace it with a plastic block off plate?[attachmentid=413905]

I used the blockoff plate from PMS.
I also reused the crank sensor but opted to buy a new O2 sensor.

Alright, here are some pictures, hope this helps.

Please note that i separated the two horizontal plastic chambers that connect the left/right upper intake which allowed me to rotate the top one that includes the intake plenum.
I rotated it down until the rubber elbow cleared the rear decklid which allowed me to mount the air filter on the drivers side under the engine lid latch.
