Nope. Lol.

Got a pair of dial calipers or digital calipers?
$10 harbor frright.
Ruler in mm and inches works ok.
Instructions give bolt specs. Aleays consider there MIGHT be a typo so stay chill.
Start matching up bolts and just dry fit it all together. If you are wrong you just pull apart and redo. Advantage of trying is becoming familiar with parts and the nuanced differences start to just jump out at you.

Some bearing IDs might be smaller than others.

If you have ipad or ipown you can save install pdf to ibooks and zoom in images. Hella useful.

Theyre all the same in bearing diameter, but some seem to have thicker bearings but I got a confirmation that theyre all the same

So what connects to the rear imrc connectors? Ive read the instruction and its not clear if I should just leave them unplugged ? I have 2 remaining?

Thats right. You only use two.

Make sure you plug the I/C Pump harness into the shorter of the 2 blue in color IMRC connector it has the yellow/grey and green wires. The other blue one is left to be tapped out of the way. The other IAT harnes plugs into the white IMR connector one closer to the pass side, and again the other is taped back out of the way.

The motor moves/rocks on the mounts, so dont tightly ziptie any motor harness to anything hard mounted to the firewall. This just leads to serious cyclic wrenching on the harness.
Better yet, make a little L or Z strip of aluminum (hardware store) to support the harness using the bolts on back of SC.

And clean that dirt and dust out first next time before disconnecting electrical connections or removing an intake. You dont want a cat turd or rusty tonka trunk to get in your way or foul anything up. ;)

I was short one bolt for the tank to go thru chassis tube so I borrowed one from futton frame until I picked one up from hardware store. Whipple will send you anything short so once you are 1000% done and have a final missing parts list they can send you whatever. Dont let one minor part hokd you up. Just note in manual and keep truckn. Might find it later or snag what you need off old intake or some busty ass futon on back deck...

I have mine routed the same way but it seems to kink on the corner of the tank after you run it.
