Default Almost done! One last issue.

We finished up the b16a swap into my ej6, we rolled it out of the garage and i ran through my check list just to make sure nothing was missed, all fluids were filled etc etc. I checked the oil and it was fine. Then I went to fire it. It cranked and cranked and cranked ( bad battery, wasnt getting enough juice ). My buddy decides to check the oil again just for ***** and giggles. Pulls out the dipstick and the oil looks like snot. Somehow coolant got in. Im pretty sure its not a cracked block because the oil would have been mixed before we fired it up. The head was rebuilt professionally so its not the sleeves leaking. So it only leaves the lines.

When we were filling the car with coolant there were 2 spots missing lines under and around the intake manifold so it leaked out coolant. We ran the lines to where we thought was the appropriate spots but apparently its not. I was wondering if anyone has a diagram for the coolant and the oil lines. Im so ready to get this damn thing done! Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.

Just look at her..shes so sad cause she wants to break fools off =(

Cant be, because when we filled it with coolant it leaked out of the line because it wasnt hooked up. (forgot to mention that)

so your IACV was not hooked up to the coolant lines?
or was? cuz your IACV 2(i believe) coolant lines

and your IACV is ON your intake manifold, upside down on the left hand side. under the throttle body. well kinda under

Take some pics and post them up of what you have where. So your doing a swap and going to run it with boost right off the bat. Dont you want to make sure the swap is running right. I would refuse customers to do that before they drove it for awhile first.
