Found the fuel sender arm in the bottom of the tank. Turns out the little brass retaining plug in my herrod fuel module was machined a little small so the arm just wiggles out. Put the brass piece in the vice and squished it. Made it about 0.1mm bigger and now it secures properly. Being Good Friday it was an extensive 10 beer job haha 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Made a mess getting the heat wrap off which pretty much crumbled.New exhaust gaskets and studs, new turbo gasket and studs, fitted the new dump studs. Fitted a new turbosmart actuator, 14 Psi spring, set the preload and bolted it up.Will bolt the dump in tomorrow and top the coolant up.Will give it a week or so before wrapping the manifold again to make sure the nuts are tight after a few heat cycles. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll get the actuator clevis to play nice with the engine mount and heat shield tomorrow, as it needs a couple more mm clearance. If the kids can play nice I can probably knock the rest out tomorrow. Here are a couple of nearly halfway pics... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a lot of point where I live though, cos it'll look like that again in about a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just gotta make a hotside pipe. The bloody intercooler has a 2.3 inch inlet just to be difficult. I'll sort something out. Went for a quick drive anyway and it sounds heaps better and quieter. It whistles instead of going psssshhhhh. No leaks too which is always good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
