Just scribbled these. My drawing skills are crap so you will just have to deal with it. I\'m better at making things out of metal so finished product will look good. If you have seen James willadays intake plenum mine will be kind of the same just a bit smaller as his is rather large.

There\'s a guy called Erdin on t\'other site with same plenum.

I have been doing little pieces here and there on the car, and little bits add up to getting the car done quicker.
 
i have bought a gear box from Kev, it is in great condition and hasnt done many miles, hardly any grime on it.
 
i have made a 6mm steel plate to sandwich between the gear box sump plate with extra steel sticking further out to bolt another brace to the box and to the chassis floor, should make it super strong now, no smashed synchros until i get serious power.

as you can see i painted it stealth bomber matt black, should make it even stronger
 
got some shiny new pieces from Clive at Mazdarotaryparts. came super quick, clutch release arm, clutch release bearing and clutch slave cylinder

have got some 3mm ally and 2mm ally, going to be making the plenum next weekend, and get it welded up by a friend of mine.
 
I have been trying to figure out how to fit my massive 60mm wategate and a 3" downpipe in the space available and have finally figured out what to do. Going to be cutting off the current wastegate piping, sealing it up. and cutting holes in the front side of the manifold and bring th wastegate forward as i have a huge amount of space there. bit of a pain in the butt chopping and welding things and i should have got someone to make me one from scratch but i just cant afford that amount for a custom mani when this one will do, and i rekon my movement of wastegate will be in a better position thatn the original

Also got a WI kit coming to me..... Pre turbo only:)

Very nice Grant. Keep it up. The parts looks fresh too:)

Best of luck with the remaining Project.

Good to see this progressing Grant. I know what it\'s like trying to find time to get things done, I\'m having the same trouble with progressing my 1st Gen restoration project. Like you, I say to myself, every small piece of work is adding up to getting her back on the road, however long it takes! At least she is tucked up in the dry in my garage to stop the rust getting any worse.

Made my plenum out of card today:)




In that picture is a turbo manifold I\'m chopping up to change my other one to suit my engine bay space. Nee the wastegate to come forwards from the Manu not backwards as there\'s not enough room for the massive tial beast.

Can anybody say WATER INJECTION PRE TURBO!!!!
