Just a note for the day someone googles this issue; the oil cooler relief valve test (pushing on the valve to make sure it opens) is incorrect in the BGB, the picture illustrates pushing from the bottom (part that threads into the motor) when the relief valve actually functions from the other end (where oil filter screws on)

While doing a lot of inspection/maintenance work on my car I thought I'd throw a few photos up. Some of these may not make a lot of sense to non mechanically minded people

This first one is the intake manifold off and a photo of the valves; look bloody clean and almost new
