My 13BT is finally together!
After staying up until 6:30 in the morning me and my friend finally finished putting the motor together. This is a fresh motor for my 87TII with new housings (5), seals, gaskets, and bearings. The only thing i reused was the rotors, eshaft, and gears..
I do have one problem and hopefully someone could answer it.
I- Can i use Series5 front cover and waterpump/housing???
II- I was tightening up one of the rear main gear bolt and it broke!..should i just leave it alone and torque the rest of the bolts??or do i need to remove it with a screw extractor?..
III- On the gasket set. I noticed there was alot of copper washers. Where do they go??..i know they dont go inside the engine?..
IV- Im going to run premix and i already removed my MOP (OMP)..should i remove the gear inside the front cover??..
I know i have more questions but dont want to bore you guys..anyways, thanx in advance!

The only thing i can comment on is the OMP thing. Just remove the whole thing, including the gear in the cover.
I THINK the S5 front cover will work fine, but the electric omp will throw a code to the ecu and put it in limp mode, but your using a haltech anyways, right?

RETed! thanx.. The only reason im trying to use an S5 front cover is because of my old water pump and housing. My S4 water pump/ housing is all rusted and i have an S5 water pump/ housing that looks fairly new that i took off a S5 Jspec. Obviously with the S4 front cover on the S5 water pump/ housing will not fit. If im going to have problems then i will ditch it and just buy an S4 waterpump/ housing..
The fastener will be removed...
About the copper washers. Im going to send my fuel rail to either to Paul at K2RD or BNR so i might need to replace those washers while im at it. Speaking of fuel rail, what should i do to the PD???.. i dont want to burn my new engine. Will replacing them with a new one avoid such a scary problem??
OK i will also remove the gears on the front cover..
Thanx!!
