Because waterrails that are available, are way too expensive as a part that can be fabricated pretty easily... I decided to make a one![Wink](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)

Obviously the space between engine and bulkhead is limited, I had to made this flange which is replacing thermostat housing.
Then there was still some blumbbing, cuttimg and welding to do:

very well done with it...![Top](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/smile011.gif)
i'd advise you to make something to accept an air purgin' valve too though. in mine i tapped a hole on the highest spot of it... at the end of the story, it may save you lot of time and troubles...

Because photobucket won´t work for free no longer, I´ll posts something that happened previously and also something from last week![Wink](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)
Got re-spray done:
![-voivhi5.jpg](https://passionford.com/forum/attachments/restorations-rebuilds-and-projects/184640d1683125683t-sierra-mk1-3dr-86-home-built-group-a-brakes-upgrade-etc-voivhi5.jpg)

Home-made oil sump
Also welded engine mounts:

Modified oil pick-up pipe:

...and then there were 16...
Afterwards I also fabricated water rail for re-positioned thermostat:
![-rg8bflh.jpg](https://passionford.com/forum/attachments/restorations-rebuilds-and-projects/184657d1683125683t-sierra-mk1-3dr-86-home-built-group-a-brakes-upgrade-etc-rg8bflh.jpg)

Finally some new stuff and little different color theme, at least in Finland this is rare I quess![Big Grin](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)
First got all bumpers and wing primered:

surprisingly gearbox bracket will not fit as it's from mk2 sierra. mk1 is even while this has 2 different heights. you will need to use mk1 bracket will slightly modified gearbox mount (it needs lowering, best way is to make a new lower profile mount)

Jos, vain onnistuisi niin olisi hienoa. Itsellä sama juttu koska laittamassa mt75 myös 1 koriseen. Löytyy yksi tuollainen rauta, mutta vaihteisto jää silloin liian ylös ja ottaa kiinni koriin. Joskus parin kuukauden kulttua olisi tarvetta osalle.

I also spray new paint for the drivers side sill and for front grille. At this point I fitted bumpers back properly, and paint job car by this for is finally done. Obviously I need to polish up it later on as final touch, eventhough this is still a trackday car.
But.. I remembered that inside of the bonnet was still incomplete.

I also spray new paint for the drivers side sill and for front grille. At this point I fitted bumpers back properly, and paint job car by this for is finally done. Obviously I need to polish up it later on as final touch, eventhough this is still a trackday car.
But.. I remembered that inside of the bonnet was still incomplete.

It´s been a while since I´ve last welded with TIG, so let that be excuse for crappy welds![Rolling Eyes](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif)
Up next I gotta check out for any leaks and add baffle plate inside the sump. And couple more little adjustments.......

The whole pan tacked and ready for final welding. I also corrected few measurements compare to earlier version of the sump, now won´t hit on dirt plate between engine and gearbox.

I overhauled front calipers, clean up and new seals. These from Mk3 Mondeo, and yes I´ve got spacers between bracket and hub to get offset right.
