Its all -6 stuff mate, you can buy an adaptor to fit into the fuel pump and adaptors to fit the fuel filter. Or you can banjo the fuel pump, thats what i did for mine.

I'll see if i can find you a link for the stuff.


*Edit

Got all my stuff from this guy (RS200DEL)

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/COSWORTH-YB-GE...1%7C240%3A1318

He was very helpful and his prices are good Plus he seems to know quite a bit about Cosworths, so he knows exactly what you need!

Ahhh right, i can't remember if the actual filter adaptor thread size is on my receipt... I'll have a look tomorrow

Failing that i think i have one filter adaptor left that i'll post over free, that may help you with thread sizes?


I know 12M will do a sapphire with a bit left over.....
