Made a piece for the oil temp sender to fit into. Didnt like any of the commercially available mountings so we made one

Very much a before and after shot

Didnt much like any of the solutions for fitting the twin oil pressure sender with the dizzy, extended pipes and questions of where to mount it...


Simply rethreaded the bottom of it so it isnt tapered as much anymore, lits it fit in far deeper, a very slight dent in the top corner and the dizzy fits right in next to it


Fuel pump under the bonnet. Red top

Regulator will be in the engine bay.

And the money shot, the engine so far


Should be laying on the last of the paint on the body tomorrow, and restprotecting the chassis/pans.

Just gotta wait for the replacement stubs for the exhaust and finish off a few little jobs and we are ready to fire her up

CANT WAIT!
