MD Plenum Spacer Installing ISO after Basic

Good evening,

I am purchasing the iso thermal version of the MD 5/16 plenum spacer.
I know somebody who is able to help me installing the basic version. He is only familiar with installing the basic version. My question is if I can let him do the basic version, and try to figure out how to install the ISO version afterwards. I understand that the main two parts that differentiate the two versions is the CCV and the aramid gasket.

What should I do?

Thanks

It won't be difficult at all, just time consuming because of the many bolts in the plenum.

Thanks, but was wondering if I could install the components inside the "basic" kit first, and then do the "iso thermal" kit the week after. Should I try to install the aramid gasket and the CCV while I do the basic kit out of convenience? Or can it be all done after finishing the basic kit? (I prefer the latter, was wondering if it's plausible to do so)

If you have all of the pieces then install everything at one time.

This.

I'm really not sure why you'd want to do this twice. Work smarter not harder.

Installing one of these is not hard, but as herrschaft mentioned above, there's just a lot of bolts that need to be twisted.

I'm not sure why you want to separate the parts up on the install?
