That's good! With the R151 I've come 30ish cm forward :/

30cm?!jesus

[Sylux]

That's just a decent guesstimate at the moment. I'm now all set to throw everything in and get an accurate one.

My adapter is 10mm. The R154 is 30-35mm so that gearbox would have been pretty much bang in place.

you obviously meant MM and not CM?





steering damper relocated

Drop bracket

welded a 10mm bolt into a heavy wall tube insert from a shock bushing and welded it to the crossmember.just gave it a quick dab of paint to keep the rust away from the weld

powersteering quick fix


manifold clearances.
The engine is out again,clutch is fitted.mounts are primed and painted.going to heat wrap the manis in the morning and hopefully paint the front panel where it has been cut out. then refit the engine and start the build up.hoping to have it off for wiring by the weekend

And yes...mm D'oh!

Bent up a new clutch line and fitted it.then bled the csc...tricky job,you can't be in any ways heavy handed with them or theyll over extend.I thought I had destroyed it earlier but it had just overextended and popped off the seal.gave it a squeeze in the vice,refitted it centrally on the shaft and loctited the bolts.put fluid into the system and bled it by hand. Seems good pressure in it.drained the gearbox of its smelly gear oil and will refresh it in the morning after I fit the engine

engine is back in and bolted in place.manifolds are on.everything is reconnected now bar the vacuum hoses.almost there

Torsion bar front suspension....

You have sooooooooo much manifold room!

Looking good!

[Paul ssrg]

yea its not too bad.bit tight at the steering column but other than thats its pretty clear.id probably go with ls430 manifolds the next time. hoping to get it out for wiring before the week is out

[Paul ssrg]

Off for wiring tomorrow.setup a temporary intake pipe just so all the wiring can be sorted.

The intake pipe im going to use is in the above pic...just waiting on some silicone elbows.its gonna be painted satin black to blend in with the bay....no bling needed!
