I don't know if I've buggered up somewhere but I'm certain I could fit the long angled engine bay brace tubes.





I'll need to not use the inlet manifold brace but it'll otherwise clear especially on the exhaust side.

I've also fitted the rad. I'll use a pusher fan.





I've also fitted the steering column frame and welded in the rear end and seat frames. Just waiting for a coupler before I can complete the steering.

I stupidly forgot to get the key and immobiliser box from the engines original car. It'll make wiring the engine a lot harder. I ultimately want to use a mega squirt ecu so I may go straight to that.

My sump sits 50mm below the chassis so I thought it would hinder this even more. I'm using a mk1 inlet which might make a difference.
