As promised some major updates.
The battery connection just turned out to be a bad earth in the boot so I just attacked it with the dremel to get the whole area back to bare metal. She then jumped into life for me to prime the turbo.
This is the very first start with the fuel pump solenoid connected. The charger belt tensioner was in the wrong position causing some slip, hence all the noise!
I then rectified this and went for another start, much much better thi time as you can see! And what a noise, the camera doesnt do it justice as I'm sure Darren will confirm!!!
Next was a start with the system full of water, and this is genuinely the first time I have had a 306 part to this state where there has not been a single leak of any kind! Still need somewhere for the washer bottle though!!!
Next as Darren prdicted in his last post the slam panel was miles out so had to heavily attack it with the grinder as well as chop out a big chunk from the headlight!
It then fitted!!
