My stupidity- it's the oil injection pump & attenant crap. I'm going to have
to cut off the top of the water pump and thermostat housing to get the engine
profile a little lower. In order to remove the thermostat, I have to block
off the hole to the  rear of the thermostat, right? I guess that that is the
bypass that shuts off when the coolant is up to temperature, right? This
thing has all sorts of oil fittings both out and in in order to lube the
turbo. Downright convenient when it comes to running the lines for the
redrive.

Yes. Don't throw away that electric oil injection pump. It is worth
about $1500. Photograph the water pump and send them to me or just send 
me the pump :-) I'll send it back with suggestions.
I think that pump is built by Kuboto.
