In my kit there is:

a spacer for the oil pickup and its 2 longer attachment bolts bolts.
Drain plug (I haven't checked, but it looks magnetic I think?)

I understand where those all go.
What are the two metal "tubes" for? They sort of look like long washers. I assume they go somewhere on the oil pickup, but before I drop my pan and get started, I want to know what everything is.

could they be 2 drain plug washers??
The drain plug does not have a magnet.

There are 2 extra drain plug washers included but I am not sure what the tubes are you speak of, they didn't come with the pan whatever they are.

Should be hearing back from the anodizer today or tomorrow I expect.

I was there yesterday to drop off some fuel pumps. The manager was out at lunch, so I didnt get to talk to him, but from the doorway I did see my batch of black anodizing parts hanging on the racks in-between stages. So I know they are working on the stuff and once they get that far it generally goes really fast.

Thanks for the update. Hopefully if the black pans are in process the blue pans are nearing completion as well.

Sounds like it is going to make it just in time for my next oil change. 1500 miles to go.

Damn. Those blue ones look nice!

Check that out. Mine is pertier than yours. I don't care if they are side by side.

Mine is black. Although the blue turned out really awesome and all my theme is blue.

The link has changed to only accept new orders, so I have to manually process orders where the deposit was paid.

I will need until Monday to get caught up though... I just got a decent supply back from the anodizer and a LOT of it was spoken for and needs to be photographed before it heads out too.

Heres a couple semi-edited pics of the anodized pans, have to finish cleaning up the white background I think. Hard to tell on this junk monitor I have LOL.

They're beautiful!

Spooler 09-10-2015 11:28 PM
Next project, build a custom intake??????

Anyone with an anodized pan - make sure to never use brake cleaner on it. Super aggressive cleaners like that will totally screw up the anodizing.
