Consider the issues sorted.

Engine #5 being uncrated yesterday...

This is an engine from a Tip-equipped 986 so there is a list of items to swap to make it compatible with a manual car along with moving some nearly new parts from the failed engine to the replacement engine. Add in a few new items and it should be ready for installation.

Task
1. Swap engine wiring harness
2. Swap clutch, pressure plate, and light weight flywheel
3. Swap Fuel injectors (recently cleaned/calibrated)
4. Swap deep oil sump, baffle, oil return pots, and extended oil pickup
5. Remove air conditioning compressor and lines
6. Swap under-drive pulley and shorter serpentine belt
7. Update cooling hoses (remove 4th line)
8. Update vacuum lines (remove 4th line)
9. Swap AOS (brand new)
10. New spark plugs
11. New air filter
12. New S model oil cooler/o-rings
13. New oil and filter
14. Refill with distilled water and water wetter
