Nice to see you get back into it.

Can't wait to see pics of the sump.

spoke to the engineering joint that was meant to be doing my firewall plate for the EB about doing my sump. it's been 2 months and he hasn't even made the firewall plate and said he won't be able to do the sump until mid July

It would appear that way.

There must be someone else in BGO who can do it for you? Otherwise, get someone here in Melb to do it, good excuse for a cruise anyway lol.

what gearbox do you currently have borg warner or btr as we have successfully done a btr auto to t5 conversion in our 1991 eb1 fairmont if yours is btr then track down a borg warner fairmont/fairlaine dash and engine bay harness as i don't believe that any fairlaine or high series fairmonts got t5s ours had the btr computer where the clutch pedal goes so we had to use 1989 fairlaine harness from dash forward fit ea manual computer repin 3 wires on our rear harness as ours is eb1 piggy backed a second cruise control cut out switch in series with the brake one t piece the vacuum hose for the second switch
oh and of course fit the t5 and plug t5 wiring into the plug that the borg warner wiring plugged into
pm me for anything else

Nice score on the extractors & booster. There's no way in hell I'd let the double diaphram booster from a v8 or Xr car go that cheap, not even one requiring a rebuild lol.

Cheers

Every one I've seen did have, the Xr's do have them as well. You shouldn't mention man, coulda traded you a set of head bolts (or two) for it!
