Well I have got XER ***T at last!!

[Lord Lucan]

Well thought I would take this opportunity to say thanks to HotRS2000 for coming to the rescue with an engine hoist as I will be getting the bottom end into the car on 2nd January with Kieran's help of course so fingers crossed this will be the one where I finally get over the top of the hill and begin the slow decent to getting her up and running so great stuff once again thanks Kieran

[hotrs2000]

just keep the turkey sandwich's coming

[Lord Lucan]

of course I will son and plenty of Tea

[Lord Lucan]

Well past couple of days have been constructive and I have now got the Fuel cell completely fitted as it should be the bottom end is now complete and ready to be put in the car tomorrow morning with Hot RS2000 so if all goes to plan the bottom half of the engine will be where it belongs in the engine bay.

Also a big thank you to Gizmo for coming round and sorting the cars electrics out and sorting out the technical parts of the fuel cell installation, Mr. Hoarder & Dave for the phone advice given to Gizmo, we have got about half a day of relooming to do for the Kenlowe fan and fuel pump and then that is it job done and the wiring will be complete with some old hash jobs removed and replaced with fresh new wiring. We also removed the old Cobra Alarm as to say it is outdated would be an understatement.

Now time to spend some cash again on Goodridge fittings braided hosing and a number of other parts alloy fuel pump bracket, and alloy battery tray plus a load of other parts more to follow peeps I will get some pics done and get them posted up for you in the next few days and maybe tomorrow.

By the way where would the best place be to order the fuel pump mounting bracket and an alloy battery tray from any advice would be greatly recieved???

[Mr Hoarder]

This is how I fitted Andy's one in RVF

I've used an original Transit battery tray in the spare wheel well on some purpose made brackets
