Hello!
It's been a while since I've posted anything on here, namely due to immersing myself in my final year of uni, which is now over and am now working to finally finish this Nova of mine.
I've got a host of problems that I will no doubt need help with over the coming days and weeks, but will start with the main two.
The first is to ask how those who have done the C20LET conversion into their Novas connected their (standard) brake servo vacuum pipe to the LET inlet manifold? I'm using a mk2 servo and vacuum pipe, which when bent will couple to the LET inlet, albeit not without snagging the pipe and therefore restricting the flow of fluid.
What modifications have people done in order to create a natural fit? Pictures would be awesome!
The second issue is knowing where on the inlet I attach the turbo coolant hose which connects to the expansion/header tank. I also that the coolant pipe in question needs a T-junction to join somewhere else, but do not know where. Again, in this particular instance, pictures would certainly be of help here!
Thanks in advance for taking the time to read and any future help-assistance :thumb:
Here's a picture of the hose. The difference with mine compared to most people's is that it naturally bends to the right; whereas with other's the pipe coming from the rear of the turbo which protrudes from the top of it bends left and around the side of the block next to the cams. Since mine is different, and still need to insert a T-junction, my idea is to cut somewhere it will be least noticeable and route it accordingly. I just don't know where I've to route it on the inlet.
