Thanks Dion,has been going well really,off the road @ present to sort rather large oil leak,made up a basic block off plate out of some old alloy I had lying around and pressure tested removed cooler...results were as I thought.
20psi revealed a huge leak PO stated it was all good but it had never been on the original engine he was going to fit in the car (3.0 911) live and learn as you do.... Replacement cooler is from a 72 911 so will need to get my suction fitting tigged on but need to bore it out in the lathe to get it to the larger size for this cooler,found a guy local to weld it for me so that's great. Other jobs now that i'am semi on jackstands is to rewire the CDI so I have the right tach signal,move the engine forward and sort the POS gear linkage rod the PO had built by someone that was about 12yrs old or something (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stromberg.gif) Have a rear bronze bush to go into the gearbox end of the rod but that won't fit so I will machine that when I do the cooler fitting. Have ordered transformer coil for ignition system as Pertronix II coil is all wrong for my permatune CDI,Bob Ashlock @ tachadapt has been a huge help getting this sorted for me ...great guy. Moving ahead day by day. |
