John's Mil-spec engine harness is top-notch, as are the rest of the parts he used. This is a fuckin' steal.

Nice car!!
I'm not an expert, but I am pretty sure that remote mounted oil filter shouldn't be upside down and that may have helped contribute to your rod knock. I know that engines have oil pressure, but every time you turned it off that put an air bubble in your oil lines and could have starved the rod bearings. |

Also, every engine experiences a dry start unless you pre-oil (Accusump or similar), and doesn't appreciably degrade bearings because the loads are so light during startup. Your reasoning is sound, but this is something we talk about with everyone that buys a swap kit or remote oil filter mount, and we've done hundreds over the years.

the rod knock came from something else i will sell this car with a block and heads from a 99 corvette with 44k miles on it for 14000. then it would just be swapping the parts over. |
