Piston slap is a bit of a concern for me given that I have a 2.3, but not enough to make me put all the ugly mess that is the lower half of the throttlebody back in.

Just a small update. I decided the most pressing issue was to get my exhaust fitment correct. While swapping engines I also changed my O2 housing (LIPP). The exhaust did not bolt up correctly and my O2 sensor was moved to the bottom of the O2 housing so it was reading a lot of outside air. On top of that, my wideband was completely inaccurate. I have so far only had time to fix the exhaust (and now the wideband is refusing to display for me).

I'm going to finish that stuff up and get a functional base tune before worrying about the idle.
