Not to dismiss your efforts by any means, but you really shouldnt have to have such a struggle. One of the surfaces has to be off deck, or something else to that effect. Especially since you confirmed no obvious damage to the existing gaskets and didnt mix up the bolts. The only other thing...

IIRC the bolts from the engine side, and the turbo flange look similar, but one set is ever so slightly longer. Once upon a time it was common to hear of people mixing up one of those bolts and developing a leak at the turbo.

@Raider i just ordered parts to do the same shit on my Pu. Been pissing Ford Jizz for a bit. Tasca said national back order on bearings, but seals are plentiful along with the whole plate assembly with everything in it. Luckily not the end of the world.

Thought about it, amongst other scenarios. But I am done with other people touching the speed and having to deal with a rental. Also done with Geico... Dumbfucks down here couldn't repair a car properly if their lives depended on it. I dont want to get into all the shit I have found plugged...

No, but not for lack of desire. After doing the hood vents last year, I ran into some long term durability issues with the foam seals I used. That prevented me from being able to take the measurements I wanted. Plus we bought a house shortly after. Goddamn house... I collided with someone...

I did a lot of measuring on the engine bay and how air pressure builds up in our cars. Anything over 40mph and you start building engine bay air pressure, which starts lifting the nose of the car the faster you go. I bet when you go to take datalogs, your steering wheel gets super light to the...

Supercharging an LS.... Meh....

Your mechanic is a fool, unless he meant when the tie rod boots are sealed. I've replaced the inners in our steering rack twice, and the grease always softens with use/mileage. For a front end clunk, check your.... Ball joints CV axles Front endlinks Front sway bar bushings Control arm...

It is normal. The ball socket on the inner tie rod has grease packed into it (as does the outer inside the boot). Sometimes you may notice a little leak out when servicing it.

+1 for the spring perch. The 3 allen bolts thay secure the plate need to aleays stay tight. If you are having issues adjusting the rear, hit the spring perch underneath the spring with some PB blaster, as the spring probably had crud on it. If that doesnt work, lift the rear and then adjust...

Didnt you have questionable oil pressure with this engine from the beginning? It could just be a bad oil pump, or broken pick up tube like you said.

That is the core. Email them, I am sure they have the specs to make the kit, even if they are not listed on their site. You can compare prices versus making the piping yourself. You would just need to factor in the crashbar also.

That is the Full Race intercooler kit for the MS6. That dude was on MSF, his name was Alpha. Unfortunately he is not on MSO. You should still be able to buy that intercooler kit from Full Race.

I am silly but not stupid. I'll post pics of the carnage next week. I wont know the full extent of the damage until I tear into it, but what I thought was a hydraulic problem, is turning out to be a clutch problem. I am preparing myself for any surprises, otherwise Penguin is going to light...

Thank you! That is exactly what I needed to see! I should be able to figure something out now...

I've seen that pic on their site. This thing just keeps the seal from getting pinched? Or is it needed to fold the seal lip a certain way onto the crank? Every set of instructions I have found are pretty vague, which is why I am asking for help before I tear into the car. I am keeping...

Anyone have a pic of the Rear Main Seal tool? I ordered the seal from Edge, and they sent me the damn seal without the tool. Their website said it was supposed to come with the tool. Fuck. I am going to tackle a job this weekend, so no time to source one. If anyone has any pics of one or...

Just tackled this job today. I replaced the master cylinder only, because I could not get a pedal assembly. Apparently they are on "indefinite back order," for now. Thanks Covid... You do have to loosen the center console since the shoulder of the driver knee plate is wedged behind it. The...
