havent updated this in a while, but the motor is built and ready to drop in now. this concerns me a bit, the egr valves' body just barely touches the kirban fpr i bought. think it will be ok, theres no gaskets between the egr plate and the manifold in the pic, but want to make sure before i drop it in. other than that, theres still a couple engine bay brackets to paint, then throw the liners back in (dredding this, they were a pita to get out), wheels on, pull the tank for a new walbro pump, then drop the motor back in and see if she goes. hopefully ill be at that point next weekend, as long as the weather doesnt get too crappy.
The gasket should give you enough clearance for the EGR and FPR, I think that's where the super thick EGR gasket goes, so you should be okay.
