right then, that my fuel sytem now complete, now have Fuel tank, accumulator, final lines and fuel filter bracket
Many thanks to Luke(Turbo-beal) for helping me out with parts, hes a top lad
![](https://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a373/lincolndanny/000_2500.jpg)
right, now a plea for parts.
Going to start bolting bits to the car on Saturday and i could do with the following
Fuel accumulator mounting bracket, ECU mounting brackets, the piece that bolts into the end of the fuel pump(female and male as the new pump comes with the wrong fitting) and anything engine /gearbox related.
PM me with what you have

This is looking to be a nice project to follow. The base car is quite clean by the looks of it and there's a load of new bits. I cant wait to see it complete. The bonus does better in black I think.
Good luck with it

gearbox linkage, driveshafts, hubs, Turbo and that bag has every union, clip and odd bolt etc in that i need
![](https://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a373/lincolndanny/000_2507.jpg)
After doing the other bit of welding i needed to do(will take pics tomorrow as it was dark when i finished tonight) i made a quick start on building her up.

![](https://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a373/lincolndanny/000_2509.jpg)

Looks like youve been busy
Did you have to pull the lump out of the donor car yourself? I bet you didnt get it home without making a mess everywhere
Keep up the good work

So, turned engine upside down and fitted new sump gasket and then fitted a new timing belt as well
![](https://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a373/lincolndanny/000_2516.jpg)
ready to go in
![](https://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a373/lincolndanny/000_2517.jpg)
and all bolted in
was quite dark by this point
![](https://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a373/lincolndanny/000_2518.jpg)
so got tons to be getting on with tomorow, mainly getting that rocker cover sorted out

last time out my cheapest quote was £2200, 19 with all mods declared on a 1.25, 3points, 1crash and no no-claims. i hate insurance prices.
