Your plans sound great. I hope you will open a thread here on this forum and share as much as you can.
There used to be a problem with hosting pictures but every post can include 5 standard pictures that you may attach when you post. I found that to be the best option... and all my pictures are still accessible after all these years while others " lost " their linked footage, unfortunately.
Keep dieseling!
Would be nice to update this forum somehow so better quality pictures could be shared VIA THE STANDARD SHARING FUNCTIONS OF THIS FORUM. Maybe moderators could solve that soon. I hope so because for now it isnt possible to add a picture that looks okay and is standard quality.

There's bound to be one or two snapped studs or bolts in a project like this. You could try soaking it with penetrating oil and drilling it out with a left-handed bit. Sometimes the counter-clockwise drilling unscrews it.

Looks like someone made an EGR block off plate there.
