If it was tightened down and then the transmission bolted to it you’re probably not going to see any rub marks on the nuts themselves, you’ll have to use a straight edge on the back of the block and check everything to be sure it’s all flush, the back of the block, the rear main seal, and the oil pan should all be flush
I understand. I’ll look for that before pulling the stock pan off and make sure there aren’t any issues with the new one going on. That will be this. Thanks. D61E522E-EDEC-4C4F-BF75-9F386A5B70B1.jpeg

wiseco supplied total seal rings an their own brand pins, size .927 according to wiseco good up to 1500 horse. this engine will never see that much.
I just didn`t want to blow up stock config an now there`s room for a little more power.
hope to run a low 9 bordering on an 8 this fall.
chasing @Hpindy an @DemonSRT gets expensive LOL.

Now it's just a wait game. Cam is ordered, heads at head shop, pistons ordered, block and crank at machine shop. I think my only big ticket item left to purchase is the rods, then miscellaneous stuff like bearings and gaskets. I think I'm going to upgrade my catch can setup, and go with the ATI 10% lower.
Looked at my HC blower and sent some pics to Kong. Hopefully they think its rebuildable. Then I get to decide if I do a full port job on the 2.4, or stay with the 2.7

The 2.7L is a better supercharger. I'd stay with that one .
