Then i forgot to take pictures lol i just soldered and heat shrunk the soldered joints plugged in and fitted all back together sorry!

Point to note on the walbro fuel pump take the 4 white tabs off and then it is a perfect fit!!! LOL Thanks for everyones help with the problems i had!!!

Today i wired up my boost controller so its all powered up i have not took anything through the bulk head yet because when i get the lump out i want to spay the engine bay silver like the rest of the car and going to be the best time to do

[Image: IMG_1071_zpsa635d742.jpg]

Just got to actually mount it there now if i mount flat its hard to see clearly to going to make a bracket up to angle it up

Ithink last week i manage to get boost gauge mounted to it powers up aswell now so three of my gauges lighting up now just a/f gauge but ill do when the new lump is in

[Image: IMG_1069_zps7a7707dd.jpg]

Just got to mount the boost controller and get new single din facia now on ebay then the centre console will be generally done bar the led conversion i will do to dials so they are blue aswell
But this is the look so far im pretty happy with it so far a few minor details to smooth off

[Image: IMG_1077_zps387e28cc.jpg]

Expected a few parts to turn up today but no luck lol piston rings and compressor should be tomorrow now
Also IKE emailed that will be with courier tomorrow so may arrive or the next day i expect And head locating bushed should be soon as well

I have hit a bit of a slow point in the build money is low hopefully mid end of the month i should have some notiable progress and photos

Though this will give me time to get soldering and do some wiring it should be done lol

Might want to give it up after tonight lol.

Anyway back on topic. I've found a bolt for removing the standard oil cooler!

I found they are fitted on various engines and after a bit of googling they were def on the 4age, found a breaker and bought one. Fits perfectly!

Then realised I already have one on the spare 1gge engine I have! Doh! So do you want the other one?
