The info on xe cams is in issue 76 autumn 2007 on page 124 and it says a 20 bhp benefit on the inlet xe cam retarded half a tooth, on an already healthy cab turbo. It's a really interesting read
It's on their website too Daz.

I opened it up to check there was no damage to anything else as I found the diff with the corner of two of it's teeth chipped and a small hole where something looked like it exited with some force. So just to be on the safe side. However I can't seem to find out what final drive it has. I'm hoping it's a long ratio so I get a calm motorway driving experience
Yeah, to clean it out. No doubt after opening, as well as it sitting for a while with tissue/cloth in the shaft opening, there will be a bit of dust and what not in there as well as old oil. Wanna run it for like a few miles druing run in and then flush it and put good quality oil. I've had my eye on castrol SynTrans (I forget what it's called excatly) 75/90 fully synthetic. Should get it for a good price from Halfords with the trade card.
Well it'll be a healthy LET, it'll be fully rebuilt so 20 brake will be nice.
UPDATE
Lousy weather and work meant no progress this week. I'd much rather have it hammer down with rain all day or be sunny rather than a mixture of both every couple of hours... weather like this just drives me nuts!
I did however get the following bits...
Mate of mine has been pestering me for the standard Cav/Cally IC I got. Because of that I decided to look around for a FMIC. After much surfing and deliberation I decided to go for this one
It seemed to tick the boxes. Dimensions are 680mm x 140mm x 65mm 2.25" inlet/outlets easily reduced with a couple reducer hoses to 2". And it didn't break the bank.
I also got this
Got it from Christian1992 on here. Hard to come by so will deffo be useful in the future should anything go wrong with my current ones. I did have a faulty fuel gauge anyway. I took out all the gauges, cleaned up the housing, cleaned up the dial faces, fitted them back together with the new fuel gauge and also re-coloured the red zones on the dial faces too. I had to seeing as they had all faded to a light orange
Hoping the weather becomes better over the coming week or so. Contemplating if I should take some of my paid leave to speed up the progress (I've got sh*t loads left).

Do you plan to mount the IC behind the grill part of the bumper? is that the size to get for doing so?

Yeah, rather than mount it down by the cross member I'm looking to mount it up instead due to restricted airflow by the plow. I measured the opening and this looks like it'll allow just enough room for the hoses. I measured the gap as approx 800mm on the Nova. I'll be able to tell next week when I remove the bumper.
