You can never have too many photos Dean. :D
Helps us see how everything goes together.
I've lost a few of the ones I took on the moke (tailshaft shortening, etc), so make sure you back them up too.

Oh, & I re-sized those dodgy pics I took on the prev page (now they're small & fuzzy).

What did the engineer say about the solid mounts, after solid mounting mine i got told no and had to remake the mounts ,I think its ok most vibration should be absorbed by the subfame mounts + later told i was using one of the most strict engineers in NSW

for about $1200 for just the radiator :shock:

I can't visualise it. I see there are two holes in the boot so one inlet one outlet but I can't see how it works. Got any drawings? But it looks nice! Nice to copy me thinks

ok... lets see if i can explain... Hole closer to the driver has a 50mm scoop built into it... to push the air into the front tunnel that faces the Radiator... then the thermo fan pushes the air though the rad & down the back scoop... out the hole at the back of the car...

If it doesn't make sense you will understand on saturday morning when its all bolted in...

ooooo. So it's standing upright? I thought it would lie flat on the floor. No more boot at all?
