Does shipper know it?
I'm learning thru you. What to look out for.
W/o. bad luck, u wouldn't have any at all. Glad it's finally coming together. 
I went to grab one of my stock LS1 injectors to take with me so I could match up the O ring for my Mototrons, and I noticed three of them were missing the top O ring. So I yanked the fuel rail and pulled all of the injectors. Sure enough there they were. So I pulled them out reinstalled the mototrons and put the fuel rail back on. turned the key and had one leaking. I guess the O ring on it got jacked from being jammed in there with an extra little buddy. ...
Well I grabbed some O rings while I was at work today and changed them out when I got home. No fuel leaks!!!!!!!!!
So I checked everything again, wires etc....... I go to turn it over and the battery is dead.....Just my luck
So I pull the honda into the shop and hook up the jumper cables. I turn it over and it starts. Sounds good, but the oil pressure gauge wasnt showing pressure. Only ran a few of seconds. I shut it off and look under the truck. There I find a nice fresh puddle of Joe Gibbs BR30 oil. Apparently my jack *** brother put the oil feed block for the turbo on upside down and the oil was spraying everywhere under there. And before you ask how...I told him it only goes one way for the holes to line up and apparently he figured out a way not to follow instructions.
I pulled it apart and fixed the issue.
Then in classic my luck fashion I finished the night off by blowing the upper radiator hose off of the radiator. So now I have a wattery oil slick under the truck. All I can say is im glad the motor is ok and everything is running good. ...

I picked it up last night from having the charge pipes redone. They look awesome. I will get some pics later. Also had a 44mm Trial wastegate put on and it is vented to the atmosphere now. Got to finish up my least favorite part which is wiring on the boost controller nitrous and alkycontrol.
