I love all the oil line work. This is something I would love to do to my car eventually. Same goes for the down-to-bare-metal respray.

What else are you doing? There's a few things you might want to consider doing now that you've got the car this far apart.
-Reinforcing the engine carrier w/ the Rennline kit
-Replacing the timing chain cover gaskets
-Replacing the timing chain tensioner gaskets
-Replacing the oil crossover O-rings
-Valve adjustment job w/ new valve cover gaskets, refinishing valve covers, etc.

good tips, i replaced the timing chain tension gaskets and crossover O rings
and i think i will do the chain cover gaskets

What a great thread, Glenn. Paint looks superb. Amazon? Love that colour. Just getting into doing my own wrenching and threads like yours are an inspiration; can't wait to get back into the garage.

Thanks Amazon Metallic Green i believe is the colour

I replaced the chain tension gaskets and managed to not remove the pulley , after removing the compressor and loosening the compressor mount i could pull it forward just enough to get the right cover off

i will be installing the whole oil system next with new hoses next

best regards
