HKS Oil Cap Almost Destroys the Forged Build!!!!!!!
The engine turned over today for the first time in a year!
Used a stocking to help filter all other metal that was in the water jacket.
After a long hard journey, we almost got cursed. I hope all things are smooth sailing NOW.
Looks like the nut on the oil filter attachment bracket spun loose.
Why? Because of shit ass design - where was the cone nut or nylon nut FFS! OR a simple tack weld
The nut bounced into the top right hand corner of the head. SO LUCKY! God know how it ended up there.
The bracket ended up sitting just within a hair on the valve spring.
How it should look - we didn't have the cut to stop the cap coming loose.
