I droped a Few new pic's in the First page. And i don't have any bolts that large for the Power Steering, Btu it looks fairly simple to accsess with engine in. Why do you need these block off bolts?

hey you steal my top secret exhaust fub. give it back, dont make me come down there.... anyway, fub just unbolt the tranny and pull the 2 units over there by hand, its not that hard, or get a wheelie board, and put the unit on it, the wheel it to its new location, if ya dont got one, put the motor on a pallet, the pull it with yur truck.. ive done it all, just keep the lower digits outta the way. and very nice s30 fub. i can always find those bolts for wrecked, and if you block those it may not steer that well wrecked.

What do you mean it won't steer as well? Well right now it has know belt on it, so it'll probably be about the same, maybe better since there is less of an area for the fluid to move. Sucks when your going slow, perfect when smashing out though...and the j30 springs wouldn't fit for anyone who was wondering.

if ya block the holes, it stops the steering from moving (on certain vehicles) cause it hydralics the system, so it doesnt steer, or very tight steering, try it, but only on some models of racks, so yur pump is screwed? i got one fer sale 15 bucks

yeah pumps screwed, the pullies really bent so when i get in the high rpm's it squeals like a pig. It still steers but when i'm going slow its hard to, just like a manuel steering rack, does. So if i plug the rack, then it'll cause less room to move the fluid. Yes thats what i was told at least..

My Weekend was productive. This is a spare head that i have(P79). The car that it was pulled out of was running at the time of pull. and i stored the head. The person who ran the head did not know what a valve cover gasket was. so you bet it was fun cleaning this thing. I broke it down. Cleaned the valves
(made them all nice and shiny) put new seals in it. light polish on the combustion chamber. and cleaned out the runners. The head looked brand new before i painted it. I used Duplica Color High Temp 1200D paint.
