Good bit of adaptation there


hitting the pump, its bolted on where the mount should go..... thought of moving the pump to the inlet side, but steve kindly reminded me about the driveshafts being in the way......

dave, u2u on the way

To fit the drysump kit, the rally cars fabricated steel engine mounts were used with metalastik bushes, these helped clearance of the dry sump pump and fittings.
No alloy mounts were used on the engine or gearbox as they break.

Reassembly pics, wings bumper doors lights etc.... trying to find somewhere to mount the dry sump tank prooved an issue, got that sorted now, cylinder head is finished aswell just didn't get chance to fit it, will do it monday or tuesday tho.



interior comming together, everything is positioned, seats and dash secured, flocking is crap and falling off but i cant be bothered getting it re done till the wiring is finished now, fuel tank behind the passenger seat along with swirl pot and two pump's, one lift and one supply, plumbed in fire extinguiser is behind the drivers seat along with the battery, dry sump tank is behind the dash cut thru the bulkhead slightly, will get pics of it all next week when its secured tho.

ill need it or ill run out of petrol on bends. Im going to be using a JAZ fuel tank, ill use a facet redtop pump as a lift pump to feed the swirl pot, then an 044 or something similar as the feed to the fuel rail, then the return back into the swirl pot

Robin, ill get prices first thing in the morning then ill call you, make sure your up! (fat chance)

JR, need coils for an audi s2- all five! I also replied to your MMS, did you not get it! it was correct, the rover one goes on straight, may need some tweeking to get the sensor to read 0 tho, easy to do.

SRi_Si, a swirl pot, basically it allows the engine to have a proper supply of fuel, imagine going round a bend, all the fuel runs away from the fuel pump pick up, no fuel=dead engine!



however i wont be using a high pressure 044 to feed to swirl pot, ill use a facet red top.
