Small update for you....
Bought some bits to run a direct 12V supply to fuel pump, to get rid of the old loom running under the car, now the original pump feed fires up a new relay, running my new cabling, The earth for the pump goes direct back to the battery only thing I gotta do to sort it is source a new plug for the top of the tank (as per pics)
Oh and just a little note also, I have dropped all my old engine bits to Harvey Gibbs @ SCS I just KNEW I was gonna end up going silly
basic spec....
big wing baffled sump
std crank
std rods
lowered comp pistons with valve cutouts
BRAND spanking new block, which will be Longstudded
GENUINE WRC headgasket
Head, slight work around valve seat area, other than that std, obviously new guides lifters etc
Light Blue injectors
T34
FULL Dyno map by Harvey Gibbs and Ahmed Bayjoo
Other stuff I gotta sort,
New bosch 023 fuel pump
Alcon 6 Paddle clutch
Custom genuine PECTEL Engine loom
dizzyless ignition (coil pack)
that little lot will come in at a shade over 6k ... I KNEW IT I bloody knew I would go overboard

All I wanted was a SAFE STRONG reliable STG III, hence the WRC gasket and long studs, aswell as new block and injectors, the rest is just incidental so more power too will defo soften the blow

Anna, If you wish to have a public discussion regarding the rights, wrongs and social etiquette with regards to paying friends / associates who do a job for you without prior agreement regarding longterm payment options we can do, otherwise please dont fire off at me.... When I am not the one in the wrong..... Paul knows he owes me money as do I obviously, Paul knows I am not hassling him big style for the money, though obviously NOW I do need it ASAP.... simple... Contrary to popular opinion I am not a rich man
DAve when you taking your tank up?

Done it
Old pins and loom removed from plug
Old wire and new stuff
All soldered to the pins and slotted back in.. I had to open up the plastic a little to take the larger cable but its pukka!! (Took long enough though )
