Yeah might need a hand when it comes to redoing the head and putting it into the new one, gonna keep driving the blue one to work, putting the motor from my aunts BG in the new one and get it rego'd, then over a weekend pull the motor from the blue one, mix up parts between it and the good block, drop it in the red one and drive the red one

Hahaha yeah not making the mistake again

the 2 washers that are different from the eight are your sump bolt washers. one 14mm and the other 18mm. you'll only use the correct one.

no idea on the 8 washers.

the plate with 2 circles is you iac to throttle one for 96-98 323s/98-03 mx5s.

the figure of 8 one is the bg part i said you wont use. got on the front of intake manis for bgs/familias.

the the thing that looks like a moon is a mmon seal. goes between crank and sump. again probably give 2 different versions. will only use one version.

I was thinking they look like the ones used on the banjo Fitting for oil feed for turbo? Also if you're not using it I'll take the bg intake manifold seal if it's the same as the turbo manifold. Destroyed my brand new one today removing the throttle body

Done, I'll bring em all with when I come round to drop off some cash and you can grab anything else I won't need,

I was thinking the 8 washers may go on the head bolts to compensate for the stretching, so I don't have to buy new bolts, or am I crazy

There is 4 of the moon things so probly 4 different versions
