DAMN, all those pictures are already making me tired and that harmonic balancer bolt looks badly beat up. Can't wait for the finale. Couldn't pay to finish the paint job huh?

The red one is a VSV for fuel pressure control and the bottom green one is a VSV for the EGR

Owner didnt want to swap engines, he wanted to keep costs low, I dont trust ebay engines, id still tear it down and rebuild it so it would cost way more in the long run. Plus all the wiring changes to get the 3S-GE working
