Ours is off centre, but we designed it that way for ease of pipework routing (passanger side goes straight back and up to the top hat with no extra bends, same with the turbo side, it comes from the back).
Worth giving them a buzz to see what price they can give, esp if you have your template/drawings.

Well been really lazy recently.... But hey ho onwards and upwards!
Intercooler has been ordered and is on design "C" now lol, should be here next week.
So time to crack on with the rest then! First off was to move Vinnie to my spare garage and get monty is the "gready" position!
Then it was time to get him up in the air to route new fuel setup.
Location of new areoquip FPR (excuse the tape  )
List of parts for fuel system I need so far...
Currently half way through the mock fitment of the fuel system. Currently the setup below only shows return from rail to swirl pot and swirl pot to tank.
Through body connections
I will update with better pictures once all the fittings have been delivered.

Had some free time this weekend so got cracking with monty...
First off was to carry on sorting the fuel system out.
Making the -8 hose from the swirl pot to bosche 044 pump..
Getting there now
New fuel goodies turn up
Free flow 90deg to replace "forge" 90deg (better flow)
Twin fuel filter bracket
Through body free flow vs old "forge" item
Getting there...
I Still have to make/attach lines from tank to "low flow" fuel filter and swirl pot to tank return.
As it stands the fuel system goes...
All hoses in PTFE braided lines with -6 fittings bar swirl pot feed to 044 pump which is -8
Standard Fuel tank
Walbro 255l Pump used as a Lift pump to fill swirl pot
Sytec low flow filter
2 litre swirl pot
Bosche 044 fuel pump
Sytec High flow filter
Aeroquip FPR
Injector dynamic 1000cc injectors
Then this parcel came
Inside
quick check to see if my cardboard mock worked.... The design has changed since design pictures. It uses a 70mm core as per design but now uses 80mm end tanks rather than 72mm the design had...
Worked well for me
I mounted the radiator and made brackets rather than good old cable ties but no pictures! Cut the slam panel out as i want it removable.
Mocked the intercooler fitment and welded the lower brackets. I'm yet to make the top hence the cable tie
Check fitment with bonnet shut (ignore the dirt he is very dirty  )
And I removed the seats and all my old guage wiring inc wideband as this will all be replaced
Not bad for a Sundays work...
