right! time for a small update methinks
Ive been waiting for a bit to get the parts ive been needing and ive spent far too much this week on the cally
Here is one of the boxes that turned up...
Theres too many parts to list but basically its enough for a damned good service and to put the car back to how it should be
Heres the spacer ive had made for the driveshaft too, im pleased with how its turned out .
Also my new flywheel came... and so did i when i saw it... love it
my new clutch arrived too so i thought that id just line up the pressure plate to the flywheel to make sure i got the right parts....
It didn't want to line up
I was a tad baffled so i thought id stick the part number into epc only to find its the V6 clutch! Because im putting the turbo gearbox on i have a turbo flywheel and needed a turbo clutch. Autovaux have been great about it as to be fair it was thier mistake and they are rectifying it asap, which im happy about
my dad nipped over today to give me a hand with a few bits and bobs (not a lot today) so we set off getting the old flywheel off, and as per my luck one of the bolts didn't want to come out and rounded off
not to be defeated we decided to get out the grinder!
One new flywheel later and...
We decided to leave it like that for the time being as theres no clutch so a quick thrust bearing change later and...
Before i decided to finish i thought id remove the altenator, serpentine belt and lower pulley...
Thats about it for now, Will soon have more pics of the new parts that will be arriving soon
Cheers
Bill
