I'm using the large cast area to pry against but it's chipping away at it and I don't want to ruin that! 
Second, I installed the exa pump and clipped on the harness with the black and red wore attached only. Now, I'm left with two harnesses, both with several wires and one has the add a fuse attached to it. Confused on how to wire that or where to even install it because both my red and black wires are right next to the fuse box already ( haven't wired anything yet just ran those two wires over to the location)
Those are the two harnesses. Really stuck on what to do there. Any help is appreciated. The exhaust is off and some of the oil lines are installed so only a few more days of work and I should be good |
The relay with the add a fuse is for the Exa pump and the other is for the factory fuel pump harness. There's a pretty crude Microsoft paint sketch that shows how to wire the fuel pump harness. If I recall properly you cut the pink wire in the factory fuel pump harness but I can't remember which end of the harness gets spliced to each side of the cut pink wire.
I agree with the others. Take all the pan bolts out completely before you start trying to pry it off. I stuck a flathead screw driver in the seam and hit it with a hammer a few times. Once I got it started I basically repeated the process with a second flathead until it was open enough for me to work my way around. You will have to reshape the pan a little once you get it off.
There's a lot of detail in my build thread if you need reference. Clink the link in my signature.
