WOW, how could I have missed this thread?!? Some nice custom bits going on there, keep up the excellent work.
righty, an update!!
finally got my arse in gear and got some time to go to the garage, first job was to stick a new cambelt on, and refit my home made tensioner and stuff
that done, time to throw it in! through the front obviously, as its easy
and shes in, didnt even chip the paint!
seems the alternator has enough room, which is handy
got alot more room here too...
then a dry fit of some ancilliaries, rad first
oil cooler(cheers mr ball!!) will go here ish to line up with the standard bumper cut out
got more room for the electric water pump now i dont have the fan behind the rad so need to make a new bracket for it
starting to look like something now
did a few other things like drive shafts and stuff, but mainly called it a day at that, although
found time to make a custom fan belt measuring device so i could get the right size one(920 as it turns out)
so there we go, do some more next week...
nice matey... looks awesome as ever.........BUT WHY THE HELL IS YOUR ENGINE CRANE CHAIN PINK!
cos it was free!!lmao actually its that colour as its meant for use in a foundry, when the cahin gets to a certain temperature that would afffect its tensile strength it goes brown
are you sure your not telling fibs and you've sprayed it pink! lmao
lmao pink they may be, but they do the job
Nice work mate its getting there!
always good to get the big bits fitted
some top progress as ever lee, not far off now mate!
looks good dude,
still dont get the point in the elec water pump...
love the grey engine bay...
I'm louder than gods own revolver and twice as shiney.
awesome work mate!
Electric water pump = less drag on cambelt= a few horseys. Also the water pump may not hold out on Lee Rev limit!

see i said that,
but then the elec pump still needs powering,which will still cause "drag"
I'm louder than gods own revolver and twice as shiney.
Less drag from an alternator already spinning than a water pump pushing water through....Try it

yeah but still drag so to speak,
but if its proven tho it works..
