I'll try to provide a fairly detailed summary of the weekend.

Madwi arrived as planned on Thursday afternoon, and we were joined by Craig the Blessed (not from the forum, but helped me install LTH previously).

Thursday involved installation of the new fuel pump, installation of new injectors, and finishing heat shields for headers. Craig handled the fuel pump and tapped the upper plenum, Madwi handled the injectors, I tackled headers and finished connection of the oil cooler. Spirits were pretty high, jokes flew, and we all look forward to the arrival of Craig's car assembled entirely with JB weld instead of fasteners for weight reduction.

Note - and this may be important - we had to splice the injectors into the existing harness. The supposedly plug n' play connectors did not, in fact, plug n' play. More on this later.
Note 2 - The instructions with the BP kit are also outdated regarding the hardware used to secure the fuel pump in place in the fuel basket, and the hose used to connect the ports. This took several messages with Sasha to resolve because it was not an obvious solution.
