Fitted two new oil feed and drain pipes to the turbo and engine and I've re-fitted the engine, just waiting the send the gearbox off now

Yippee my money has just come through, so I've got another £5k to throw at the 2a bearing in mind I owe money out for buying the new galv bulkhead the other week and I also need to spend another £1,200ish to have the g/box and tranny box refurbished / uprated and the rest is for other bits I need for the 2a so I need to start making a new parts list for everything else I need to get

[Cornish Rattler]

Wow, some of the bits i ordered the other day have started to roll in, a new 300tdi rad and pair of new galv bulkhead support brackets

[Cornish Rattler]

More bits yesterday and today, intercooler hose kits, new intercooler and alternator bracket

Been busy Saturday and today moding the new galv rad panel to fit the new 300tdi rad and intercooler, here's some pic's

All bracketery needs to be painted yet, all nuts and bolts will be replaced with new and i need to go round the rad panel with a grinder where i have cut it with a power saw which will be done this weekend
