engine is in, did a few other things too.

had to pull it out a couple times. we were going on hopes and dreams that the pan would clear the kmember (bmr) and it does! (nearly)

had to grind the inside of the drivers side 'ear' of the power steering rack bracket a couple times now there is a 1/4" of room all around.

hopefully it will be running tonight

Looks great. Make sure to check you AN fittings on the supply and return on the pan. Mine came loose after about 250 miles. But all is well after I retightened them.
