I might have to make my own crank holder tool... I plan on doing my timing belt this weekend and im going to have to figure something out for holding the crank while the motor is on the ground. I guess I could bolt the flywheel on temporarily too and hold it somehow that way.

I'm going to pull the 1.6 out this weekend. Can I rip out and trash any of this 1.6 crap?
Got the throttle body mounted up with the 1.6 adapter from Psyber! Now I need a throttle cable re-locator from FM... Or I can fab up my own but I suck at fabbing metal and I would rather have something that looks nice on there, so i'll probably just pay the $10 and buy it from FM lol

Soooo my Begi front block off plate is wayyy too big (I guess its designed to block off that ugly neck)
Which block off will cover the hole behind the cover?
I tried grinding down the block off I have on a bench grinder but it's not grinding down like I'd like it to

Hopefully it gets here quick!

It shouldn't hurt it terribly. It's under pressure, it's still going to flow. The relative size of the return barb is so small comparatively speaking, it doesn't matter too much.
Coolant is still going to be hot and pass through the heat exchanger even if it were an insignificantly slower flow rate.
If you think about it, the MSM uses the metal return tube to the mixing manifold to source it's coolant. Choose your poison, before or after heat exchanger. It is all sourced post pump/pre-thermostat and gets returned pre pump.
