Besides that, thanks for the pictures. You are not going to change the head gaskets, right?
That is a much bigger job and the engine has to come out.

hmm, I was looking at similar billet wheel from Riff Raff. It's quite a bit cheaper at $170 that the nearly $400 Wicked Wheel. Seems like a far more inexpensive performance option than upgrading to the Garret Powermax.
