Ok so I am just waiting for the parts in the mail. Do you happen to have a manual or know the torch soechs for the bolts. Mainly the impeller and bowl bolts as well as thrust bearing housing

you can usually find a manual on Ebay if you look hard enough..

clean as you go, see how the stuff is in there when you pull it out, clean clean clean..paint it up nice, put it back together, freeze the wear ring and the bearing overnight and your install will be much easier  ;) be sure you set your impeller to a proper clearance which is imperative...then bolt it up and tighten the shit outta it..dont forget the intake gasket though  ;) by this time you will have drank alot of beer

hope that helps!
