Reply With QuoteDid the new main seal come with a plastic insert to protect it during the install? It goes over the crank so the lip doesn't get caught.

Havnt updated in a while so heres what I have been upto. Stage 3 is a little bit closer!
Gearbox is back on engine and bolted into the car. Plumbed all back up and all looms reinstalled and connected.
Picture of the strengthened clutch fork installed
The high flow manifold installed with the special 8mm nuts that fit a 10mm socket. Still a pain to fit but managed it!
Also trial fitted my polished manifold
Primed the runners before painting too, went for a gloss black look then my injectors arrived from Hungary so I could test fit them and cut down the mounts for the fuel rail since the S3 386cc injectors are shorter than oem.
Also installed a DW65 fuel pump which was pretty straight forward
Quick fixed a split vac hose too
Fitted the Franken TIP and the 3" MAF and realised that I cant use the airbox as I originally wanted to without a bit of messy around so Gav pointed me to a desgin and a site where I could get it and ordered it!
