There is a separate bracket too. I might have all that shit in a box here if you need something.

Wow, fancy.

The craziest part of all this isn't you doing it, but writing it all down.

Summit fucked me on my adapter fittings.. apparently anything larger than -4 and smaller than -8 has got to be a -6, right? Wrong.

all 5 of the ones they sent me must have been packaged wrong by aeroquip.. oh well.

here is what the new compression fittings paul hooked me up with on the end of the factory lines look like:



so instead of the adapter I was going to use, I'll do this:



hopefully they'll just send me that shit instead.. it wont swivel, but the other end at the FPR will.

I'm also having to order a new fuel rail from BBM to go with the new FPR adapter I already bought.. its actually easier than trying to find the fucking adapter to plumb the two together.. balleens.

anyone have a freeze plug for the 16v block breather laying around? we're going to need one for tibber, one for me.

you know what else blows? they dont make silicone vac hose in black in small quantities any place that I've checked.. you can sure get it in blue, red or yellow though.

totally going back to rubber.   brain damage!

I'm going to head to napa at lunch today, just remembered that I have the old 16v breather in the trunk of my car.

(actually, tibbers may use the ABA sized one, he has the plastic breather and better oil filter flange)

I got a napa freeze plug yesterday, and it fits perfectly in the hole.. with no resistance.

now I get to take my oil pan down and get it out  dance!

new fuel rail is on the way, as are the new fittings from summit.

I got bored last night and took the radiator and fan out to see what kind of room I have up there- I should be able to fit the rad, intercooler and oil cooler up in the nose with no problem, may have to go with a lower profile oil cooler core though to maximize flow to the IC and still have room behind it to prevent heatsoak from the radiator.

there are going to be hoses running fucking everywhere.

yeah, but since I cant see the guts, I cant see the build quality... and there is really only one way those can fuck up, and it ends in engine death.

made some progress last night..

put the valve cover and intake back together, but managed to break a bolt off for the valve cover- tom convinced me to take everything back apart, then we spent a while looking for drill bits.

broken bolt was removed (amazing what you an accomplish with the wrong tools), then I reassembled again with the new fuel rail- both lines will come in on the drivers side of the rail, so no 180 degree fitting on the passenger side like before.

I ran the plug wires under the intake instead of putting them back in the black plastic thing- I'm only running those wires until I put the ABA in anyhow.

I also took the hood off last night, because its been in my way for a while.. only two bolts holding the fucking thing on anyhow- then I noticed exactly how bent my hood hinges are, the hood might actually line up if I replace them with the ones I have sitting in the garage.

I need to get my assembly lube and fittings and stuff from south philly to finish the fuel lines and breather setup- hopefully tibbers can comes in sometime soon so I can steal mine back  brain damage!

this is a shot of the can inside my fender, I still need to drill out the mounting bolt hole.



there is actually more room to run the line than in tibbers car, so I'm thinking of going the same way his went rather than through the fender.. that would keep a little more clutter out of the engine compartment anway.

this is how much room is in the front of a scirocco II to put oil cooler/radiator/intercooler setups:
