Hello, I was just wondering... there is no alignment for holes that we need to consider when installing the squirters? Not that I am aware of...Could someone confirm this before I close up. Thank

What engine? The piston oil squirters for the rb20 only go on one way. There is a whole next to the bolt whole for the squirter that has to line up with the bump on the squirter itself.

it's for the rb25. the only mark that i can see is there is an outline on the bolt around the edge of it and that indented circle ring has a dash (-) mark 180 deg across one another.

They can only be installed one way on rb25 like jdmser said.

there should be a guide pin on the squirter itself for the rb25. I know when i installed mine those where in place in ensure they go in straight, its fairly simple.

That's what I thought. I just installed according to the r33 fsm and torqued down to spec. I second-guessed the process because I came across someone mentioning it. Thanks a lot guys. BTW. the r33 fsm rb26 block section is the same for the rb25 correct?
