Ok so you guys remember Enosonic having issues with his 3L and his front cams would not turn. The problem resulted being a broken timing sprocket and keyway, which resulted in 6 bent exhaust valves. We decided on going hyrbid because everything was there to get the project going.
When placing the 2.5L heads on the 3L you quickly realize that an oil return port on each side is exposed completely.
To remedy this issue I fabbed some plates made out of aluminum by tracing the gasket and then die grinding it to the correct dimensions. This was my result.
This plate fit like a glove here is a pic before the addition of jb weld.
Once we let the jb weld sit my partner was not satisfied by the plates durability so he took it upon himself to fab some additions to the heads. Here they are before going on the 3L block. Enjoy!

One more day and the car should be back on the road again.
