maybe i'm spacing out, but where did you get the kit from and how much did you pay for it??
Oh and suggestions include, get yourself 1 new axel nut, and pull the passenger side CV shaft and intermediate bearing support from the car completely. this will aid in the install of the kit.
when installing the oil lines, ONLY USE tpfe thread sealant and not teflon tape or RTV silicone on the plugs and fittings in the block adaptor and Relo.
while you are finishing up the last steps of doing the oil line install, i recommend filling the oil filter on the bench with fresh oil. you may need to top it up a couple of times over the course of the install, just make sure it's mostly full. this will cut down on the priming time of the oil system later.
also, wait until the very very last second before you install the new spark plugs and BEFORE you start the car. as the very last step before you start the car should be priming the oil system with the spark plugs OUT of the car! at the same time pull the fuel pump fuse. this removes the load caused by compression and shuts off the fuel being injected into the ports. doing so allows you to circulate your fresh oil through the oil lines and filter before starting the car on a dry engine.
oh and read the instructions atleast twice before you even pick up a wrench.
