Before the engine install, I clean, prep, and paint it, explain the reason for using the log manifold, mod the transmission with detent and shift selector springs and show a mistake made, then install the flywheel and clutch.
🔥 intro !!! another sick episode. I respect anyone that shows their mistakes. Huge progress on the build 💪🏽 looking forward to the next one & as always thank you for sharing.
I would pass on the swivel thermostat housing. I had the same one on my k24 and couldn’t get it to stop leaking. Plus the car didn’t come to operating temp nearly as fast as oem. The oem plastic housing is easy to use and the size of hose to get it to plug into the mr2 system is almost identical as the swivel. I bought the adapter to switch out the metal line on the oem housing from Tractuff. So you can delete the metal lines and run a normal rubber house to the oem housing.
Curious what happened to your videos? I'm no longer going K swap since finding how much cheaper the 1.8T VW swap is but I am still interested in the build.
