Hi all,

I should have taken more detailed pictures of my engine and tins upon disassembly. I did, not but enough of them and of course the pictures I don't have of certain tins are exactly the ones I am not sure where and in what order they go.

I also just opened a set of heat exchangers I purchased over 6 months ago. Kinda tells you the rocket fast pace I am moving. I think I have spent more time in front of the motor and transmission with friends talking shop and drinking beers.

I noticed a tiny hole and a couple of little cracks on the edges of one of the exchangers. Is this cosmetic or something that needs attention?

And of course the Tins, do they go on before or after the exchangers? I have found a spot for most of the other tins, and these are the last two. Please don't tell me I have to remove everything to get them on... ha.

As always, much appreciated for any feedback and guidance.

Pictures attached.

Kinda sad, I can't remember. I believe it was the pro-disc.
It has worked wonderful.
Fingers crossed.

Here's a couple of pics of my progress on the engine.

Now I am wrestling with whether I should relocate my fuel pump, as my old 3 port died and I ordered a newer two port bosch model.

I already had purchased and installed the tangerine stainless fuel line kit for the original location.

Not sure exactly what I would need to change or additional purchase in order to locate it it up front. I don't want to put it in the fuel tank or the fuel tank compartment. However I do like how some have located it in front and protected by the undercarriage cover plate. (sorry I don't know the technical name of it.)

Any detailed advice on what I would need based on my existing set up to make that happen would be appreciated otherwise I will probably just put it on the rear firewall as I have seen on many posts.

Thanks again,

Gary

p.s note the Dr. Evil DVD in the background.
Also the Jake Raby type4 engine build has been indispensable.
