Nothing? And any Tricks on doing it? I am finally putting it back together i guess I need to bend the front crossover lines. Any trick on not breaking another oil sending unit? What actualy breaks it? And should I install the fuel rails last? It seems like the best way to do it.

Yes you can run that PCM just don't get on it to much. Those programmers just add stupid amounts of timing. Also make sure you get the button head bolts for the valley cover so you don't crack the intake when you tighten it down

Ok thank you for the reply, so I can use it just dont "use" my car haha but I can keep my foot out of it for a week. And yea I have already done the valley cover bolts, just need to install the new intake. Do u guys install the fuel rail on the intake while it's out or after its in. My o-rings seemed to be in good shape should I still replace them? Thanks

Its recommended to swap them out. But they can be re-used if they are not damaged.

In addtion to the button heads. Be cautious of the fuel rail bolts. I know on my -102, its says not to use the stock bolts because they have a nub on the end which will dig into the intake
