Pulleys look nice, I was hovvering over the buy it now button on ebay for some the other day...

 

Also a huge thanks to Paul @ Zen for the inlet manifold which will allow me to run v5/6 heads with v1 inlet manifold and set up/management etc

Which is in the pile of bits to be sprayed

Simon[/QUOTE]

Is it a hybrid of the two versions and reversed?

Mark

 

sort of..

it is a v1 manifold widenned and front entried to fit the width and then there is spacers that adapt to the bolt holes on the heads with heat spacers between.

Simon

 

fuel pump now mounted / fixed to boot floor as I am very happy with it..

wiring needs tidying look at the pic



Simon

 

Looking spot on Si

Hell of a project you've got there

 

good project!

 

Thanks guys.. next priority is rear bulk head as not keen on that fuel behind the spongy seat!!!

Might have to upgrade the fuel hose used for fuel pump and siwrl pot too as it leaks a little fume when tuned off.. so smell of petrol when returning to the car.. seen and been in far worse mind you. Rear bulk head sealed nicely might help.

Simon

 

Now you are going too far

Them pullies are just insane and you are pushing the limits of blingy-ness to new heights...

You and John S are getting far too giddy.

 

Mucho tartiness

 

Morning tart master,
I learnt from the best!!

 

That's the 'pot calling the kettle blue powder coat'

 

lmfao

 

posting the pic of the swirl pot and pump yesterday I then noticed the state of the wiring.. tidied it up and then looking at this pic I see I need to remove some more of the tar sound proofing from the boot



Simon

 

What gauge wire have you got running to the pump Simon?

Looks thicker than mine, I might need to upgrade looking at yours.

Oh and youll get use to the fumes after a while.

 

Fumes and your car doesnt explain it enough!
It removed my eyebrows and skin from my throught lol.
Not sure I bought an amp wiring kit from halfords.
It is overkill tbh but could run two pumps off it in the future

 

Lol ive got a few magic trees in there now, Smells fresh.

 

lol..

 

 

the new front end looks very clean...black headlamps would look even better though

 

thanks.. headlight washers were removed and holes filled before spraying etc..

Planning to pic up fog covers this week..

I prefer the standard 00 headlights.. but need a manual drivers side one to replace the leccy adjust one I have already.

Simon

 

Simon, get yourself some self amalgamating loom tape or rolls of heat shrink to tidy that lot up

 

Slit conduit will tidy up your wiring nicely !

Good work, and nice project Mr. JGM.

Mine's in the bodyshop all week !

dunx

 

picked up some new front fog covers whilst mapping at scoobyworld

will fit cold air feed and paint covers in time


repaired flock on the dash
before

after

no before on passenger side but it was as bad as drivers


Also bought some box speakers intending to remove all four original and fit the two box ones to cage.. but they were heavier than the four original so I have removed the front speakers..

Simon

 

Front number plate looks far too legal, and far too big IMHO.

 

I got stopped a couple of months back and £30 fine for plates.. they now inform dvla and dvla write to you.. after so many times they take the number plate off you and you get a Q plate.

it has been in the front screen the past too weeks as I didn't want to fit it but decided today that I best do so.. it looks pants

May go for a legal square one..

Simon

 

buy some BLACK cable ties Simon!

 

the fog covers look alright black to me

 

Never realised they were still using the Q plate system....?

That wouldn't be good.

As Steven says, cable ties are your friend.

 

cable ties?

I had assumed Stevens colourist () cable tie comment was about the green and red on the fuel system?

I used up the last of my black ones securing the alarm sensors and wiring to the cage

 

Square is the answer Simon, here's mine-
