It kind of looks like they might be resting against the manifold wrap and I'd imagine it wouldn't be too long before they start tearing it up. I would also worry that resting on the manifold right there you might be at risk for boiling coolant in that spot, though I am not sure about that... Just some thoughts. Other than that, this is starting to look spookily OEM. =)


Thank you for the help! I actually figured that would be a problem since my oil cooler lines were almost tearing from the vibrations.

I ordered a rubbery fire wrap and will may even add another layer on top of it just incase.

I'm almost ready to put the engine back in, but still not sure where to hook the chains on the front side of the engine. I was thinking maybe the lower intake manifold bolts that hold the injectors?

This is how I solved the clearance issue to the Inlet. I had the bolt just put in reverse and then tightened it from inside to he bracket.
