Trig

Still needs a bit more setting up and rad fitting properly before I can run it.

Hopefully got few loose ends sorted this weekend then I'll get a video for you guys.

Have to get the rest done ASAP so I can take it for mapping too.

What alternator/bracket is that? Any more pics?

The bracket on the alternator came with it.

It's a power lite rac065 same as a cheap denso but with some machining done and this bracket on it.

The adjuster is a eBay job. 😉

Cheers mate just need to sort out the heat shielding now.

Thinking of wrap and some alloy plates between exhaust and engine.

I'll get one in a bit mate it's just a eBay job turnbuckle 😉

Lots of different sizes on there.

A lot of Motorsport and engine builders are now selling them at a hipped up fee.

Anyways exhaust is done now just have to tidy up again. 😢

Bought a jigsaw puzzle today. 😜

Well after all the grief a mate looked at the pic and rang me to say you can't mug weld fuel rails as the crack under pressure they have to be brazed. 😢😢😢

So today they was all ground back as much as posable and rewelded with braze.

Just need to make a couple of brackets to hold it in now. 😜

One step closer after a nightmare with fuel rails injectors I decided to make one rail out the two original rails think it came out pretty well.

Must be boring you again lol.

Small steps to start up time.

New rocker gaskets

And throttle body's going to there final resting place.

And a mate that runs the same ECU popped in just to make shore it powered up and give me some pointers on how what needs to be done before we start making noise.

O and the same mate has offered to build the axle up for me in his spare time to help out.

So thought I better do this quickly

Engine wiring is getting there now just few more sensors to get and the dash to wire in.

Few small jobs done today.

Timing wheel fitted to the crank pulley.

And the sensor bracket made and fitted.

And a stroke of luck with the final part of the steering which fitted perfectly with NO modifications 😉

Hoping to get few more hours on the loom tomorrow.

Are you planning on making it road-legal?

I'm planing on making it as road legal as I possibly can get lights wipers indicators so on then take it for MOT and see if they tell me to Fook off lol.

Another tidy up in the garage.

(Feels like that's all I do sometimes).

Pulled the rocker covers off to get them sorted.

Refitted flywheel clutch as it looks like it's brand new.

Just need to buy some more gaskets and fluids fir it then it can go back in (for the last time fingers crossed).

Also pulled the engine loom out the box trying to work out what's what and what's needed or not.

Can anybody tell me if the alternator is ECU controlled or just a standard type??? (I don't have one yet and need to know before buying one).

Air jacks back in there mounts.

Fuel tank and straps are in. Need a mount for all the pumps filters.

Battery is in. Need to make a switch panel/centre consul as I now can reach the dash lol.

All battery cables measured marked out kill switch and the outside pull are located.

Loads of fuel/air/brake pipes and fitting need ordering making up.

And I still have o sort the front end out once I've rebuilt all the suspension and axle painted all components.

Ah the list is getting bigger by the second. 😢😢😢

Also dipped and repainted all the drift wheels

And just because you have to!!!

Test fitted done tyres wheels.

And the super with 8's for road.
