to install the aluminum oil pickup spacer, you need to:
1) unbolt the oil pick from the engine (oil pump actually).
2) place the spacer between the pickup and the oil pump.
3) install supplied longer bolts through the pickup and speacer.
4) hand thread bolts into the oil pump, then torque to spec.
I am assuming these are the instructions for this item. there's not a whole lot of other ways that this item could be installed. additionally, they may or may not want you to use some rtv on both sides of the spacer.

UPDATE>>>>
Got most of the install done in the past 2 days. Tomorrow i will finish up with installing the UTEC, filling it with oil and running the line from the BOV to manifold. one question i have is where do I tap into for manifold pressure? I need to tap in for the utec and the BOV. I will post some pics up in a few.
thanks Keith

yes and no.... the down pipe was a PITA. I dont know how jeffie did the install by himself?? I didnt even work on the car unless i had a roomate around to lend a helping hand. Also the directions missed a few things, so i had to stop and take time to research. now that it is done i am glad i did a DIY and did not pay a shop. It let me understand my own car a little better!!
Does anyone know which line is the throttle body EVAP line?

Looking good man! Ya flip that pipe and if it's alil scuff you should be able to polish it out with a buffer. I had alil scuff on mine and was able to buff it out as well.
Props to jeffie also for doing that whole thing solo! I had to use my roomate for most of the build. I think jeffie has 4 arms...
*that blue Z looks familiar

This turbo kit is capable of 650whp on a built motor, but jeffie and the OP here have stock blocks. jeffie made 373whp on a DD dyno, which is probably closer to 400whp on a DJ.https://my350z.com/forum/5677372-post188.html

- I have an idea, maybe we could have a mod set it up so that if you have <50 posts and you click on the F/I section it automatically pops up and you have to click one of those "I have read the terms and conditions of posting in F/I" buttons. Its such a great thread BTW.
