cheers mate,
on the plus side, thats the new courtney oil pump fitted:d
things still to do
1. Remove & line up quickrack then refit (thanks bazil / iain for the info;) )
2. Remove engine and get chassis cut out for alternator as its fouling when driving.
3. Remove rear axle, get it powdercoated and refit with new polybushes that i bought ages ago but never got round to fittinglol
oh yeah, and the small matter of getting it painted, dont think i will manage to get it all done before the new family member arrives on or around 16th of september tho.

No worries mate, as I said I'll do the chassis leg for you when you get the engine oot :)
cheers mate, snuggy found a wee oil leak when he took it a testdrive, so he is goin to check it out then a will take it back down the unit to strip it back out
Glad to hear your still working away on this mate, will be a bit of a relief when its finally all finished i bet!
Just incase your no back on anytime soon, all the best for when the new family member arrives :thumb:
when is it getting painted
well i actually worked on a nova today, but not mine lol, so dc has had problems with altenator hitting the chassis leg, so after the previous attempts to clear the leg by battering fook out the leg by the guy who tried the conversion dc removed the engine to box out the leg properly with the help of me and iain ( nov4-sport )
