Minor Update!

Acquired the following parts that were missing:

Heat shield for turbo manifold.
Oil feed line that was twisted.
Plug for the thermoswitch that was broken.
Another box of miscelaneous gaskets, o-rings, grommets, broken injector diffuser from LIM, and new fuel tank straps from Malloy.

I did remove the front bumper so I can install the R1 oil coolers:



Johnyzoom hooked me up with replacement crank sensors and the trigger wheel:



So I bead blasted them and painted them (no picture):



And I stole a page from theories thread and bead blasted the LIM and covered it and the egr heat shield with the reflective heat barrier:



Next is to pull the oil cooler and engine harness. Need to clean up everything under the hood and rewrap the engine harness and replace the damaged connector.

After that I can begin reassembly.
