Check it out guys, just put my new rebuild IC in and she lights up like a Christmas tree!! 78,416 miles on her, probably won't start her today but tomorrow for sure. 👍👍🏁

Very cool, enjoy! Take your time. K&N is popular. Normal filter is paper, the difference should be obvious. Yes normal on the oil filter, they are designed to hold oil and have an anti drain back valve built in. You don’t want the engine dry waiting for the filter to fill on startup. Look it much discussion on that topic.

I’ve found the BOSCH 3401 is the best for retaining oil for startup. As far as draining the oil cooler,for a first time owner not knowing what’s in the system or system contamination I can see draining the system but no need otherwise.

Nobody had a bosh 3401 or k&n so I bought a Napa gold suppose to have anti drain back valve but after it sits fo a couple hours it has a rattle for about 3 seconds on start up. I ordered 2 bosh 3401s be here Tuesday. Thanks guys, she is running and sounds good, I have a 45, and 56 codes.

Napa gold is a good filter.... the 3 second chain rattle is fairly normal after sitting and will probably still be there with the Bosch filter as well... Ive tried every filter between the 92 and my 90 ZR-1s and have always had a 3 to 4 second chain rattle after sitting..... one engine had 45k miles on it and my current one has 33k on it, it the noise is always there after sitting.

32valvZ, OK, has anyone ever thought about a pre oiler plumbed into the system? Or maybe oil filter relocation system? Just thinking out loud, since I got her running and she sounds good I can concentrate on tuning and detailing. I was surprised the plugs had such a strong blue spark, I need to install the brake master cylinder and check out the rest of the brake system. I was worried about getting enough coolant in her too, but it seems to have went pretty well. It had/has a lot of marvel mystery oil in the cylinders and exhaust still burning it off/out, idling is not enough, I need to drive her around the block a few times to get her good and hot. I appreciate all your guys help through this process. Also need an alternator, the AC works that surprised mee too. I'm a happy camper.!! 😀
