The reverse sensor is the only sensor that really cant be used on this swap, but, the other 2 are really close to the tunnel, and I dont need them, so I hacked the ends off,
And then filled em with hot metal until full.

Easy peasy, screw em back in, remember the long one goes in the top!
I might try to pull a reverse light switch off the shifter, have a micro switch, the nuetral safety in my car is currently disconncted so not having that wont hurt me, actual go me off the street before, and the 5th gear advance cutt switch.... fuck that thing! I dont even know if ive ever had one. Dont understand how it works, or if they actually infact do work. Gone.

It looks way better with the sensors filled. and good to know you can weld them. I always thought they were more brass/tin then anything.

Did make an aluminum one of these..
It was easy, because im a level 30 alchemists.
Just took the stock one, and hit it with some of my special magic aluminium spray converter

Dug an exhaust mani out of my beard, was going to "settle" on using this one, but it turns out its the most like a gx mani as you can get, almost a 4into2

Welded up the emmisions stuffs on the exaust. The key here, and ive messed up before, is you have to leave the flare of the pipe to seal well
So I cut the pipe short and booted it back on, then filled the whole thing with weld. Idealy I would have droped a peice of round steal rod in the hole so its not just weld, but I didn't so whatever
Theres 3 of those, and then I cut a half inch out of my l4 su heat sheild and tacked that back together.
Kinds set it on the motor, found a few studs that will be to short, and a few that are to long. Deal with that tomarow.
This is not my su manifold, I actualy borrowed this one from a 13 year old girl.

Got the flywheel installed,,,,
Then took it back off to fix this bolt I broke. New impact is substantially stronger than my last, 2 bumps on a grade 10, must have been fatigued.

I'm not sure why, but I actually use my torque wrench for clutch components.
