banjo bolt upgrade
Well i'm about to go FI again after going SC then back to stock now gonna go turbo
so i was hopping to replace the timing chain tensioner and the upgraded banjo bolts for better cooling
I was wondering if anyone in the area has done this before? any advice? or better yet can you help me?
time will be reimbursed with beer/food etc...

Yea, I did this a couple of years ago. Its a piece of cake except for getting the No. 1 bolt in. You'll need a universal joint for your socket wrench (with masking or electrical tape on it for "sensitivity") and a lot of patience.
When you drop the oil pan you'll need to let it drain overnight. It'll still be dripping the next morning and would probably drip for days but enough is enough. Just wear an old expendable T-shirt when you start putting the new banjo bolts in.
The new oil pan gagket material will need to cure for 12 hours or so before you pressurize the oil system. This and letting the oil drain makes it a 3-day job. Plan accordingly.
I'm glad I did this. I can push my baby without any worries now.
