N47 head
The liners aren't that restrictive, if at all. I wouldn't mess with them. I run P79 heads with liners.....I don't notice any difference whatsoever.

Ditto that.....right down the flusher with two new dampers and two worthless bolts. I feel better that I'm not alone....."Another please bartender"!

Dealers choice. I've done it both ways and it really is a 2 man job either way. If you put the engine in first, make sure you support the engine so it doesn't "hang" on the rubber motor mounts. If you put the tranny in first, support the tranny, so it doesn't hang on it's mount. There are difficulties with each method....either will work.

Problem with that, is if the woodruff key isn't perfectly aligned, you'll drive that right through your oil slinger! :stupid:

Yes, I bought 2 premium dampers from MSA.....I ended up throwing them away.....wasn't about to sell my problem to someone else. Don't use those expensive bolts on your stock damper unless you machine that drop down off the washer.

Phillip.....I finally gave up. I bought two performance dampers and they were so tight I was afraid to torque 'em on. I had them machined and still felt uncomfortable. If you use the Nismo performance bolt, don't use it on a stock damper. The drop down on the washer bottoms out on the end of the crank, preventing everything from pulling up tight up front. Been there....done that! Regards. Guy

Tranny first....engine second. Remember to support front of tranny. Either way, two people are really much better. When aligning the motor to tranny, you may need to turn flywheel slightly to align transmission spline.

Rear main seal orientation
Don't forget to oil the lips of the seal.....and yes it should be flush with the block unless you have a previous groove in the crank journal, then it should be say .030 inches from flush to contact a clean surface.
