Default Help Needed (Building engine back up)

Hi Guys

Im stuck putting all the bits back on my just rebuilt engine. Im ok with most of it and to be honest its nearly all together

However im stuck with one bity at the moment which is.....

I have a long wire with a crank sensor on it a knock sensor on it and a metal bracket with 2 plugs on it.

I cant see where the bracket bolys too and i think the knock sensor goes on the rear or the turbo side of the block which means the cable has got to run around the rear of the block on top of th gear box.

Does anyone have any pics to help me as im majorly stuck and i cant put engine in until ive sorted this problem.

Thanks Guys

Rob

from knock sensor just above sump level under turbo, it travels towards the front, bolts to the sump bolts (the long ones iirc) crank sensor obviously is at the front, and the plugs and bracket fix to the block behind the dizzy

Thanks mate, There are 2 bolt holes on a diamond shaped bit of metal does it bolt to that.

Im suprised it goes round the front, seems a lot of wire for that, itl looks like it should go round the back.
