Update:

I tried to fit the walbro fuel pump and had problems but thanks to Sparkystav we think the pump would not fit as there is 2 different types of housing but i will comfirm this and get pics for ppl to refer to in the future

Piston rings should be here 2nd - 3rd of Jan after a little bit of chasing! and so will the new piston ring compressor

The head locating bushes are ordered thanks to Mattlaw he helped me get hold of them so awaiting these aswell

Paid IKE the rest of the money for the turbo kit so this is now fully paid and hopefully delivered soon in the new year

Pain but due to funds im gonna hit another stop point which is the ARP head bolts i need to get on order but this is now not going to be till mid end of January

Like to say a big thank you to all the ppl that are helping me through this long process it is much appreciated!!! Smile

Ill get pics of all the goodies as they arrive and assembly ones too!

I had to "mod" my Walbro to make it fit mind, there were 3 plastic tabs on the bottom that were stopping me closing the housing so I just cut them off, its in and has been working for months now with no problems Smile

Checked my spare in pump part today and it's the same as the one you have.

If your not desperate and can wait a little you can have the one from my car when I get my new one built?

The three white tabs on the right of this picture.

It might have taken more "modifications" than just those but it was a little while ago and I can't remember 100%.

Hopefully you can get sorted mate Smile
