Yep - unless Dan gets a wild hair and wants to do it Friday night late... I want to have him go over the fuel system first, so Sat is the install day. Thinking about a road trip? I have plenty of room in case you want to crash.

Short Block To Go Please

The OMP is all that is left that I need off the OE short block. Need to be real careful with it - pricey little biatch.

Sohn adapter in place. I split the lines around the one coolant bib. The Samco hoses showed up for the party also. What is odd about the hoses, is there is one hose they don't include for some strange reason. It is the lower hose off the reservoir tank, plus they pre-molded some of the bends incorrectly on the upper smaller hose on the reservoir tank. I can make it work, but just thought it was odd.

Nemesis, is that a S2 OMP? I ask since it looks mounted differently contrast to mine when I placed on my SOHN adapter, S1 engine ('06)

Then again that may be why you're calling it Renesis 2.0 and I'm just slow this morning perhaps.

That is a S1 engine and the adapter Richard sold me for it. Where does yours look different?

Hm...IIRC I think the front of my OMP looked different but after looking closer in your pic it may not be.. I'll have to double check when I get the chance. I moved all 4 hoses to the left of the radiator hose though but looks like yours don't have as tight of a pre-formed radius in the hoses as mine do so perhaps it's better with how yours is set up.

If I might add, make sure you add some protection around those hoses as when you get the clamps on they're going to be right next to them to rub on.
