Got all the autometer ultra lights out from the sedan for the ute.
Made a new under dash guage holster to suit the bigger guages looks a little stretched but its only 15mm taller than the stock style will look better than the cups bolted under the dash.



Big night tonight gotta weld it up and nes,
S sump.

HAHAH Yep that's what I meant. You are most welcome to put pretty plates with radiused corners too. Engineer requires at least 65mm x 45mm x 3mm thick.

Ps I have found that using google chrome that if I click on Show unread posts since last visit and shut it down, it show new posts when I open it again but if I then do it on another computer it shows I have looked at em all...

Got the motor all mounted today.
Sat down down and thought id check the old sump and found some nice fragments so i stripped head and dropped pistons out found a broken ring scored bore and a heat spot in number 1 .

So im not spending any more cash on it at the moment so im just going to drop the HR front end in i have thats fully recod,my recod trimatic i was given, that big dollar 186  i have, stock steering with a set of drop spindles that im not using now.
