    If you get it from tigerjapanese.com its just a plug and play kinda thing. Just drop it in like you would any regular motor.

    CAMSHAFT SEAL, CRANKSHAFT SEAL, TIMING BELT,TENSIONER, WATER PUMP, SPARK PLUGS AND OF COURSE ALL THE FLUIDS. THATS WHAT BEST JAPANESE ENGINE ON COBB PKWY MADE ME CHANGE IN ORDER FOR THEM TO HONOR YOUR 6 MONTH WARRANTY IN CASE SOMETHING HAPPENS.
