i do have an issue with the piping being a little to short.. but im working on that..
the other issue is the pipe is so big where it goes over the rocker cover i cant latch the bonnet..
im assuming there is less clearence in ed compared to el??
if i cant get it sorted ill use the au piping instead..
also i have another little issue with the vct oil line just rubbing on the belt..
so ill give it a bit of bendy beny tommorow...

What does the blower get driven from with that setup? ... ?

not really..
the only issues were the aircon spacing was out by a few mm (au with ef pump).
and the ed aircon line needed to be bent slightly (ed aircon line on ef pump).
if it was an ef or el it would have been s**t easy...lol..


i just got it running i did a bit of bodgy fiddling to get the pipe work connected..
i still cant latch the bonnet as the pipe is too fat..
i took it for a short spin up the street.
and..... holy s**t!!! it has no tune or injector mods yet and it made about 5 psi at 3000 rpm..
and it really sucks you back.. :D
but unfortunatly any more than that it pings and breaks down..
so tomorrow im off to get a new fuel pump,reg and start sorting the tune out..

looks great troyman... looks like your still running the standard exhaust manifold? should also see some good gains upgrading that... keen to see how the shifter goes...:)
