Yeah, the OBDI swap is almost a foregone conclusion on the more wicked set-ups on OBDII cars. Don't ask me how much I spent to figure that one out.

well I got the exhaust on and everything now then I heard knocking so I felt the pan and it is my rods hitting the pan (canton pan too) so I pulled it and made some notches for the rods but I could only see where 3 were hitting so thats all I notched. So then I put it back on and the fourth rod on the pass side is still hittin but it is way quieter than before so im just gonna let it tap itself out cuz IM not pulling that damn thing again
