new motor

yea i know, my car has been pickin up the knock sensor and has been runnin rich. so i had a gas smell to my oil. so i had to change the oil and filter and it was a bitch. but how do i work that thing. i mean theres 2 hoses shouldnt there only be one

[dcrusupra]

I believe its the feed and return hoses. I've never looked into an oil filter relocation kit so I'm not sure what is included in it.

see thats what i figured it was, i just labled it ghetto because it looks like gardening hoses comeing off of it

but about getting that enine down to the head while its out of the bay. what all do i need to take off to do this

The hose in the middle is the feed line (unfiltered oil going to the filter) the hose on the side is the return (filtered oil going to the engine).

Taking the head off with the engine out of the vehicle is 10X easier than with it in. All that talk about disconnecting wires does not apply to you. Come on, its not rocket science, just take the parts off until you get to the head bolts. Since its out of the car you can leave the CPS, water outlet housing, exhaust manifold AND entire intake manifold on the head and still take the head off. Just take off the turbo, pop that timing belt off, disconnect the little 90 degree coolant hose at the rear exhaust manifold side and the 90 degree coolant hose on the bottom of the water outlet housing and loosen the 10mm allen head bolts under the valve covers and off it comes. Actually now that I think of it, there is one tiny coolant line under the lower intake manifold that needs to come off (connects to the water bypass pipe) so you will need to take off the upper intake manifold to get at it. Wait, the motor is out of the car, nevermind, just don't forget to take it off.

If you are sending the head out to get machined than you have to strip off pretty much everything that bolts to the head.

hmm well i knew it would be easiser with it out of the bay but when i was looking at the tutorials i was just like damn, this is gonna be a bitch. but now when i hear that its almost like 5-6 things i goto do man i could have it apart in 30mins. goto love air tools :0.mmm yea i need to check the condition of the head before i think of sendind it off. i have a friend who is a machinest i can just have him do it for free. but yea thanks guys and does anyone know where you get the front facing intake manifolds. or are those custom made or what

The universal fuel rail won't work. Use the stock rail and drill and tap it for -08 supply and -06 return. A friend of mine just put down 814rwhp using a stock rail with a single -08 feed line. If you want to run dual feeds use -06. You may need to relocate the alternator to run dual feeds.

oh comeon its not like you need the alternator when you say drill and tap, where the main lines hook up or the internal of the housing?
