The pedestal can be accessed by 2 10mm nuts below It. One of the two are abit of a pain but nonetheless pretty straightforward.

You may want to look Into getting 2 new O-Rings or alternatively, as I did, seal It with Gasket Maker. Fini.

ok were do the 0 rings go? i have 2 that came with the kit? i think they go in the little machined places on the bottom and also theres 2 threaded holes in the side of the cup area what goes there, And does this do anything performance/cooling wise?

the two holes are for 2 oil related gauges (pressure and temp)

but i think thats the only advantage to having that pedistal
