No I used m14x1.5 threaded drop links. I got them from eurocarparts. Thelatheman turned up the threaded bush for me.

So I need to organise myself better rather than attacking all the jobs in one go.
So firstly I'm gonna get the cooling system sorted. I'm trying to track down a Westfield owners club person who had some specific reroute hoses made for the top hose. SFS hoses made them but won't remake them without the original persons permission. They make for a far neater job and get the top hose tucked in nicely above the exhaust and by the cam cover. I quickly hacked the bottom pump inlet about this morning. I've no access to a lathe though so I'm unsure how to machine a hose retaining recess onto it. |

That's a kind offer but setting it up would a real ball ache. You'd need to remove the chuck, fit a face late, then an angle plate onto that then the piece to be worked into that which will then need centring.all that just to turn a shallow recess to help retain a hose in place.
I could file something adequate into it so its probable best to just do that. |

I ll take a pic tonight when I'm home. Welding it could work. I have an idea re that which a picture will explain better than words.

If you mean the small steel L bend then no we're talking about the actual inlet which receives coolant from the radiator. We want it to point forwards not to the passenger side.
