I'd just like to point out something. I was using this How-To to drill my VE head to put it on a DE bottom end. I drilled through the back, then the bottom.....and screwed the 1/8" NPT plug. The plug was blocking almost all of the hole on the back. So i suggest drilling a hole that's higher than that.

One question. WHy did you go with the RR block instead of a regular de?

dont know if you ever check this or if anyone does, but what did you do about the coolant hard lines being RIGHT in the way of the oil fitting for the line we have to run for the oil to the selonoids? The bolt hole on the block RIGHT under that fitting is where that bracket is supposed to go.

what hardline is that from? A rr engine? looks like a det.. but that hardline looks a lot different from the det OR the ve ones we have. I just spy the oil cooler as well.

Thats a "hybrid" one we made to use the DET oil cooler. It's a DET one closer to the block and the outer one is the VE one, you can tell because it has the attachment points for the VE IM. The motor I did this thread for used a full VE water hardline set and did not have any interference issues (like this one) with the oil line.
My ve one doesnt look like that though.... Maybe its not a ture VE one. Hell I dont even know now... it doesnt mount up on the IM like that one does... mine has a bracket in the same spot as the det one... sh*t might be a damn DE one for all I know now... would it help to know my ve is a 97... and not a newer one. Maybe they changed.
Still dont know what Im going t do... just more work... lovely.

Sounds like you don't have a "real" VE one. It shouldn't be that big of a deal to get it all to work together. You will have to switch to a DE/DET coolant flange/sensor fitting vs the VE one if you dont have the whole set.
did I also mention Im using an o2 induction manifold.. Ill jsut leave it hanging around back there... just mounted over on the coolant temp sensor housing... I was trying to avoid more work in this temp... Didnt wanna have to pull em all off and hack'n slash em... Ill have to do it anyways. Oh well. Thanks* for your help... Any other issues you had?
wish you had a couple more pics of what yours looked like but ill just fab it up myself.
