Sure have thanks, I've allowed for more like 4mm as I intend to run with a thicker shim to help reduce the pump-chain slap. ________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies.

It's just that you would'nt have the added protection that the Accusump offers.________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies.

But then the subframe, wishbones and the gearbox would need to be custom made as the geometry would be all wrong and the driveshafts would shit themselves unless I got a touring car style upside down gearbox. ________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies.

However the car is such a pain to get at where it's currently living I can't be arsed with the faff of nearly half an hour to get it out and the same again to put it back at the end of a long day. So work is pretty much halted for the moment. ________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies. I sell new and used welding equipment in the Hampshire area.

Whenever Dad fixes the shed roof and sorts out a hard standing to put the car on, so not right away. I can still get on with building the engine up and sorting out a few bits and bobs in the mean time though. ________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies.

Not updated for a while as there has been nothing done lately but I did a bit this week so here goes. Progress on the sump baffle...   Some lugs welded into the supm to hold the baffle box...   These are the gates that will allow oil to flow towards the pickup but not away from it...    ________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies.

I also got a decent new Gazeebo with some corporate printing on it for work and for p*ssing about with cars, unfortunately the lettering is'nt stuck down too well in places so it's going back for them to re do it but I think it looks very smart. Saw this and thought of you  (I added the 6 of course) Finally, I added the second louvre in the nearside wing, fitted the dash bar, welded up a load of holes in the floorpan and finished fitting the driver and passengers side door bar gussets.       ________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies.

But the heater matrix has let go on the China shitbox so I'll be doing that instead (It will be the first time I've removed a dash and then had to put it back after!

I will at least have something to keep the rain off  This... Plus, with the sides on and a nice space heater inside that should keep me toasty. ________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies.
