^^^ Smart man ;)
Getting the head checked before you install it is a huge time/money saver in the end.
Other things to check:
- The head thickness...stock (un-cut) is 116mm from deck to cam cover seal surface
- Hardness...has it been annealed from an overheat
How can you possibly ask a question when you have no clue what you're even asking about. :3d_frown:
Playing "let's all guess what the OP is talking about" is, frankly, stupid and a complete waste of time.

Step 15-2 - release fork.
This is the 3rd or 4th in 2 weeks...does anyone read the TSRM?
1st - You're not "backing the bolts off"...when all the experienced guys are telling you to "crack the bolt and re-torque", you're moving the bolt a 1/4 turn max. The bolt is still under tension and the HG will stay sealed.
2nd - Do you want to risk uneven clamping force due to bolts backing...
Personally I wouldn't choose an average filter at an above average price just because it has a nut welded on it. ;)
I've used a huge pair of channel locks before.
Good luck getting that filter off!
Here's a couple of pics of my auto tranny linkage...the 1st one is a bit blurry, but you get the idea.
Concerning that hardline around around the block...put a WTB thread in the classified section or PM tubbie...he might have one.
Where did you get that motor and how do you know...
Yeah, I can see that. Keep in mind there's only a 1/2 dozen or so refiners in the US...look at it like this, you're using Conoco Phillips gear oil. The rest of the names are just marketing handles, including Kendall...Ford too, it's really Conoco Phillips. I'd bet the Ford friction modifier...
Since Conoco Phillips makes Motorcraft oil, I'd head down to the Ford dealer and buy their friction modifier for an LSD. Essentially the Kendall *is* Ford gear/differential oil...the same stuff guys have been running in Supra LSD's for years now ;)
The EGR cooler, Valve, and Vac Modulator are the same. I'm pretty sure the VSV is different though. The vac routing is different too...here's the TSRM lnk:

The Turbo manifold has a Vac "tree" mounted on the lower...
I though that might be what you were thinking about concerning the EGR ;)
One other thing about the EGR is it doesn't function/have any impact at idle or WOT. You can still detonate at less than WOT (engine under load) though.
LOL...good to hear you dumped the 20W-50. You should give...
Actually the EGR cooler has little (if any) effect on the #6 cylinder cooling wise. If you look at a head, there's that big coolant fitting aft of #6...there's coolant behind the EGR cooler.
If you want to remove the EGR, the correct way is to remove the cooler and block the gas port on...
It *should* come with a removable A/C pulley as well.
The ATI Dampers are outstanding...SIP Racing (suprarich) also sells them. Maybe you can talk him into a group buy ;)
