Dont have pics right now, but with you standing infront of the truck this is what you should have beginning at the front of the motor:

1. first and last bolt on drivers side (cyclinder 1; for alternator support and engine lifting hook bracket, and cyclinder 7 for accelerator cable bracket) has stud
2. first bolt on passengers side (cyclinder 2) has stud for battery ground.
3. passenger side bolts at cyclinder 6 has studs for MAP, EGR vaccum solenoid and EST sensor bracket.
4. last bolt on passenger side (cyclinder 8 for lifting hook bracket) has stud.

Bit of a thread-jack:
That's a great looking motor Scott. I really like the valve covers. Are those standard height or tall? Would they work with 1.6:1 roller rockers?

They are slightly taller than stock and my 1.6 Comp Magnum roller rockers reside under them.

What kind of headers are those? Is the black a special coating?

Those headers are Flowtech for 88-95 body style. The paint is just some rattle can 1200* black I had and naturally it burned off within the first 10 minutes.

i used the VHT flameproof paint on a set of headers back about 10 years ago. When I pulled the headers and motor out to swap in the 6.2 diesel they were still silver. They'd gone three years including winters with salt and crap and still looked good.

I did have them sandblasted first though. I'm pretty sure no matter what you spray over the cheap-ass black the headers come with it'll burn off.

I also bead blast headers before painting them AND I also paint the inside as well. It really doesn't concern me that the paint burned off as I may be going back to stock manifolds anyways. I'm tired of fiddling with headers and the problems related to them and as I get older I realize that just driving the rig is all I care about over how much power it makes.
