HI PSI Member 1,572 Member For: 17y 11m 1d Gender: Male Location: Central Queensland Posted 07/01/16 10:51 PM Share Posted 07/01/16 10:51 PM I drilled my cover and machined the two -12 weld ons, so that it recessed as far as possible. As mine were not in the standard location, I could tig them form the inside of the cover, making it neater... I went this way, as putting the on top look untidy and that the fittings would rob on my new bonnet trim....Just remember that the rocker cover garnish has to be installed first, and that you have to be able to get a spanner on the fittings.... So, depending on what garnish you use, you may need to make some pedestals to raise them up a little... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surley that's the reason he said not to use them? Save changing the loom for no benifit at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did some painting today on the engine ,did not look the best for a rebuild and sandblasted sump and front housing ? This is how I got it backhad to mask it up for the over spray and then some spray paint to hide all the black stuff ? was not hard to do but if it was me I would have done it when the engine was pulled apart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol its a stuffed btr 4 speed with only 2 gears that work .going to gut it so I can dummy fit the box to the engine so I can fit the intercooler pipes and the rest, before the box arives from Dominello . I will have to custom make the intercooler pipes to suit the fg manifold as I will run the pipes upwards from the turbo side . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
