Engine Preparation Options
If unit is being shipped via Air Freight the engine must be free of oil, new engines come with break-in oil in the pan, so engine must be un-crated and drained of oil and a new filter installed (that is dry).
Addition of timing tab for mechanically injected engines. The factory cannot modify this assembly as it's intended for electronic and mechanically injected engines. We can optionally add the mechanical timing tab to the front of the engine's timing cover with special tooling and have it match TDC for timing with timing lights, We do this and add the plug in the timing cover to delete the crank sensor opening.
