Yah I hear you.. I put my manifold today and saw that I need to trim some of the plastic off. The intake will not clear the wire support ( plastic ) nor will I be able to place on the cover.

Hope you get better soon and enjoy that S52 of yours.
BTW, I got my engine in :)

Yeah, you'll need to cut some of the wiring harness cover off to clear the intake manifold on.

I've been loving the power!

I saw you got it in, it's looking great! Everything looks really clean.

For the power block I used a battery clamp my dad had laying around and just routed everything that needed power to it. It was kind of crazy.

Sorry man been busy!

Yeah I trimmed them a long time ago. You only have to trim the top cover one.

Yeah look at pics of mine that show the covers. You can see where I cut for the intake manifold

[craiggroves91]

Got a brake booster to try out

[craiggroves91]

Anyone know why my temp gauge might creep up and then quickly go down to halfway?

It seems to be at the halfway mark most of the time and occasionally it will creep up to over 3/4's and then soon after quickly go down back to the 1/2 way.
