| leadfoot, just wondering if you priced up an M4 vs the Wolf3d? I remember it being fairly close to that but I can't remember if that was the retail or wholesale price. |

My only other thought is to install the injectors into the intake runners. The extra travel for the air/fuel mix bugs me too. Any thoughts on how to do this?

How hard is it to replace the conrod and main brgs in-situ? How long would it roughly take?
Cheers, |

I pulled the pan about 12-18 months ago, all seemed well. I have to say I'd be surprised and pretty worried if sufficient gunk had built up in that time to block the pickup.
