i should have heeded the warnings and paid the extra $100 to get the proper part for the febi version of 104 200 0528. the Uro part is absolute junk.

#1 the aluminum feels very cheap

#2 the hole for the tapered 13mm Y-bracket/oil bolt is too small. This caused me to knocked the small o ring out of place and I ended up dropping it into my timing case. luckily I could fish it out with a wire hanger.

I ended up having to take my drill out and widening the hole to fit the tapered bolt body.

#3 the hub for the pulley was too large. being out of spec, it was almost impossible to fit the clutch fan pulley. I had to do find extra bolts that were longer and used them to bring the pulley in.

#4 the hole for threading the upper smog pump bolt is not even close to alignment. when looking at it straight on, you can definitely see the misalignment which will require me to do more drilling to accomdate the smog pump.

i am stuck at #4 so far, but if I can get the smog pump in, I will post more failures with this part.
