Great build!

Great idea on the radiator cap in the top hose there, get the cap at a higher point. I've had nothing but issues when i tryed bleeding my cooling system.
What radiator is that?

I dont think any pan will protect your sump being that low from a speed hump or massive pot hole lol.

You should look into the K24A pan as they arent cast like that K20A pan. This way its more likely to dent/scratch rather than shatter upon hitting something with any force.

Keep it up!!
