Well had a long day. Been up since 5pm yesterday afternoon. Had night shift 11pm till 7am this morning then headed straight down to Jims for 9am to make a start on the car.
Started off stripping the front end and inlet off ect. Fitted VLR and just went from there.





As you can see from the picture above the fuel rail was causing an issue fouling the bonnet. This was the 1st job to sort out. Removed the fuel return and regulator and welded up the hole and fitted a new return on the end of the rail. Next job was to fix it yo the inlet what required modifying the mounting brackets. Heres the finished product with the 384cc injectors fitted.







Next up was to fit the AEM and oil pressure sender what wasn't to hard and didnt take too long. Mounted the FSE fuel pressure reg while just made a start on the loom. Glad I got the easy job :lol







Got all the omex loom plugged up to find there was no TPS plug, had been cut off for some reason. Decided to fit the map senser in the back of the inlet and made a start sorting out whats needed off the standard loom. Also made a relocation kit for the battery to be moved into the boot. Next fitted the throttle body to the inlet. This is pretty much as fsr as we got today. Oh apart from finding out there is no way the standard rad is going to fit so going to plumb in a 205 rad setup tomorrow as jim has a nice thick high flow rad sat on the shelf B)







back there tomorrow for a 9am start to see how much more we can get through. Done quite well today so fingers crossed I will be ready in time for mapping monday morning
