Alex you could go through and delete all of the "crap" but Im pretty sure that would make the thread about 3 pages long

It was suggested that I make a new thread containing the build up information only for my enigne and other mods but Im sure that would end up like this thread :)

Update 402499-5-9579559

the power steering has gone in and is working well, Ive got a leak to fix and Im hoping an O ring and an aluminium shim will fix the problem. Once again a big yay to Paul for putting up with my bleeding all over his workshop, it wasn't just power steering fluid on the floor Paul :) Im hoping tomorrow I ca

In shipping news my new distributor and coil cleared customs (they wre concerned at its contents being free) and will soon be in place on PJ.

The dizzy is about 25mm shorter than the one thats in there now and the overall diameter / circumference is smaller as well. A big thanks goes out to Giles "king of packing tape" for sending it across the pond.

Yes I did thanks Giles and Paul came down today and we sorted the leak out in the power steering, thanks Paul.

so Just a couple of fiddly things to do like replace the radiator support as mine is held together by hope and paint, then I can install my third eye.

And when all that is done Im going to treat PJ to her new distributor and coil.

Hey Jules, this might be opening a new can of spam worms, but do you reckon you could give us a quick summary of your setup? Perhaps as an edit on page 1 so it can still be found after another year and 500 replies :)
