Default ABS

Right, Since I bought the car with out the engine in although it did come with the engine in a few boxes I have a few questions.

I've got the crank off being reground and I have a few other bits and bobs Im working on at work, So I thought I'd get the gearbox in tonight.

I know most people and books say fit the engine and box together from under the car but as christmas is coming I cant afford all the bits and bobs to do that until next month, Hence fitting the gearbox now.

Anyway, Got the box in with a bit of brute force. These abs pump thingeys that run off belts to the drive shafts, How the hell are they mounted. Ive got the one with the white plastic cover on the left side (standind at the bonnet looking towards the boot) and the one with the black cap on the right hand side. The LHS side one seems pretty straight forward but the RHS is tight as hell. Does any one have any clear pics of this to show how they go?

I also need some new belts, Where can I get these from. I've read a lot of posts that say remove the abs but I'm trying to keep the car original and I cant be bothered to start fitting new servos and brake lines etc.

Also does any one have any clear pics of the back of the car, down behind the inlet manifold just to see how all the cables are laid out etc.

Cheers

Craig.
