Went to test fit the headers and found that the OEM oil heat exchanger interferes with it. From what I've read on it, it's more for cold start to help the oil heat up to normal operating temp than it is for cooling. I deleted it. I can always run a thermostatic sandwich adapter and use an external oil cooling system later if need be. I also took the timing covers off and started the belt replacement process. Lastly I installed the magnetic drain plug and the oil drain valve in the oil pan. I rotated the valve flat after I took the picture and realized how stupid it was to have it hanging down like I originally installed it. I have this valve on my 2015 wrx and I love it. Makes oil changes so clean and quick and it has never leaked a drop.
