I've found that life I needed.. It's HERE!!
What an absolutely fantastic job you've done mate. Hats off to you!! I believe you bought that RS500 inlet from me. I braised those fillings on the rails and painted them black. You bought it from eBay right??

I recognised your name from a magazine feature at the time,did you have a white 3dr track car?
and was it you that modified the throttle linkage?
this is how I bought it.

had most of the weekend to myself so spent a couple of days on the car got some jobs ticked off the list.
with mikes help we got the brakes bled,had trouble at first but found the valve to the rear was faulty,once that was changed all went well.
oil pressure gauge turned up so now have a set for the dash.
put another hole in the bulkhead to take the extra cables.
got the number plates,rear decals and ford badge fitted.
and gave it another coat of wax/sealant.

Its just an earth wire from the relay.
I wired mine up to a switch just in case. I put a new radiator twmp switch on mine about 3 years ago and it stopped working last year when I was sat in traffic on the M1 and the cooont overheated.

well after 5 years the car runs
changed the l6 that came with the car to l8 with msd stage three chip to run siemans,launch control,anti lag and closed loop fueling coil pack ect
got the siemans and fuel pressure gauge fitted.
sorted the battery cables.
had the scuttle panel painted.
mate a bracket to locate the coilpack onto the battery tray.
one problem I am having is with the power steering,i must have a massive air lock in the system and ive tried for hours to bleed it but im getting no where
with the engine running if you try to turn the wheel is whips out of your hand and turns and shakes by itself,anyone had this problem before?

Your pipes are round the round way on your rack, do you have the Aeroquip fittings on the rack?

The bottom pipe in the picture goes to the pump, on my car the pump is on the turbo side.
The pipe that goes to the left of the picture goes to my cooler the to the tank.
If your asroquip fitting is fitted to the lower hole on the rack and goes striaght to the tank is the wrong way round
