Step 10
Once I was done with the intake valves and ports, I went to clean everything else such as the TGV setup, port plates, EGR, and manifold. Make sure you remove all gaskets/rings!!!!! Forgot to take a picture of the port plates and intake manifold walnut blasted but I will tell you it is night/day clean compared to the pictures I took when I took it off all gunked up!




Clean. You need to quickly wipe away any stuck walnut shell.






Step 11
Reinstall the plates and TGV assembly. Make sure all gaskets/rings are seated correctly. DO NOT USE RIPPED GASKETS OR INSTALL OUT OF LINE. Reinstall manifold and reconnect all hoses and plugs. Triple check that you didn't miss any and that they match up exactly. Take pictures, use assorted markers and write everything down as this is not a project you want to get wrong.... ALSO MAKE SURE TO FOLLOW THE RIGHT TORQUE SPECS THE BOLTS FOR MANIFOLD AND RELATED PIECES GOING TO HEAD IS 18.5 FT LBS
