how does this work? i know new studs have to be drilled, but does anything have to be donewith the old ones? and do anystuds line up? are the ports a perfect match?

 

no the best idea


there IS a way to do it but ill have to show ya


PS: can i have my ecu back you removed from cowboi's house as that is MINE and was NEVER his

 

drill new ones.

no zetec ones line up

but the ports line up when new ones are drilled

whats your way bal?

 

get a plate made

 

shhhhhhhhhhhhhh its top secret

 

depends what cars it on.

i got a plate from interpro, and its moved the turbo too close to the rad

 

wait till the engine mount wears out too,,,,,,,, that when the REAL fun starts

 

dont need to wait

i reckon 1st time i give it some revs its gona smack the rad

 

i reckon theres about 1cm there

 

Iam in the same boat
Mine is going in the XR2 so rad clearance does create a little problem

 

pmsl.......... what plate it that


but cant be that bad if you can get a camera in there

 

Yo. Have you got the vibratechnics gearbox mounts?? Mines roughly as close as yours and hasnt touched yet under hard track use. Not ideal tho! I think I'll be gettin an area-6 tubular manifold and fook it all off above the gearbox when I get a T34.

 

fook that mate,,,,,,,, id rather drill the engine than have that option

 

tell me about it

gona have a go at making a custom actuator bracket. tuck it under the turbo abit more. shoulg get another cm then

 

how about blue tacking the manifold on the block?
that might give u a bit more clearance

 

Just how mine was but never had a prob, sayin that though if a mount does let go kiss goodbye to the rad So not ideal no but like i say mine was fine

 

Looks like a mint set of engine mounts for me then

Isnt there a way of sealing the last stud that goes through th oil way?

 

fook me,,,,,,,,, if you drill the block and make it to the oil galley

how deep do ya wanna drill it,,,,,,,, its risky enough when the water galley is drilled through,,,,,,, why would you wanan keep drilling
