    I'm in the middle of swapping engines and my donor motor has a different outlet/valve on it than ragingfit's and all the others I've seen. It's a 2018 JDM engine with 15k miles.

    The extra valve is broken, so I can't use it as is. I'm hoping to find a part number for that outlet like raging fit and just swap it in. I've attached a picture.
    I'm hoping you folks can enlighten me. Otherwise I'm off to a junkyard to try to snag that part.

    Update I found it. I think I have a prime engine. It's in the engine, radiator section on the parts ordering site. Now I just need to dig into the extra hose running under the exhaust manifold to the pulley side of the engine and make sure it's irrelevant or just block able with no issues

    If you type his name verbatim, with an "@" symbol at the beginning, it'll auto-complete (verifies you've got it right) AND he'll get an alert. He's still a frequent poster, may have ideas.

    Oh yeah, like this lol: @Ragingfit
