G'day mate! Yeah she's still plugging along. Still gathering turbo bits and pieces, been on a bit of a frenzy over the past couple of weeks getting parts.
No progress on the transmission though, i think all that excitement was a small stroke haha. I'll get the turbo sorted first before i think about the gearbox. I'm not the kind of person to drive flat out everywhere, so i'm kinda confident that it will stay in one piece for a while. All in all, i'm getting there...slowly

Hey Fordman, How's that weapon coming along. If you need any help with the turbo install let us know. ( e.g wiring & whatnot ). I actually have diagrams if you need. Cheers buddy.

Thanks mate, nothings changed, still gathering parts. I appreciate the support, i've actually got the genuine BA workshop manual on PDF, man it's come in handy haha. frankieh wrote: I saw this thing over the weekend..

Schweet as bro! So which metal lines have you got? The turbo coolant feed and return? If they're the ones i'll nab them for sure! As for the turbo oil drain, i'm going to stick with the stock line, i'm just being fussy now haha.
I've managed to score a butterflied lower manifold, i've already gutted it and just need to dab a bit of weld in the hole at the front of it. |
