    Leave oil pan gasket, put engine in car, drive car

    Seriously though, looks good, glad you decided to simplify

        Speaking of which, now is the time to relocate that filter to an easier spot!

          Actually there is stock like room between runner 3 and 4. Super easy to get to still. Its not like ebay headers that block access

            Paper oil pan gaskets are not available right now from anywhere (IMC, WP, SSF, etc.). They were coming from MTC and they have no ETA on a new batch.

            You'll be fine with the cork, I have good luck running it with a very thin smear of ultrablack on both mating surfaces.

              Run the cork one. No issues with them here.

                Which headers are those? Everyone seems to say shorties don't offer any power gains.

                        Fuel rail stock works perfect for a vacuum block. One end goes to the booster, one goes to the valve cover, then the 6 small ports like you are doing. Curious to see if you have more luck with the speed density tuning than I did. I didn't like the narrow resolution of 70-100kpa in the load maps. i never tried using any kind of buffer in the lines, but have read that's what people are doing. Reading off the vacuum block with a mechanical vac gauge the needle would bounce back and forth from 0-9" of vacuum. A traditional single TB will read close to 20".

                            Excellent work. Definitely one of the hardest working enthusiast in the game.

                              Should swap in late model fuel injector plugs. Tidy's it up a bit.
