karking 7bolt to 6bolt

I put one in a customers car a year or two ago. Everything went really well and it was a easy install. Just be careful how you plumb the oil pressure sensors, don't put both of them on the T fitting as all the weight can snap the entire assembly off.
 
I put one in the GST around 114K and havent ran into any real problems yet (133K).

One thing that did throw me for a loop though was when i was originally going to get the external oil-cooler installed i wanted to use the 90 OFH but it didnt line up with the block, later i found out i needed an Evo III OFH which didn't make sense to me since those are only supposed to work on 2g bottom ends so i was confused (and still am) on what exactly i have in my car a 6-bolt or 7-bolt. i mean the OFH would just lead me to say "okay i guess i have a 7-bolt" except i counted the bolts on the crank myself and there were only 6. So at this point i dont know exactly what type of frankenstine motor i got from them but in the end it hasnt caused me too many headaches.
