So how far along is the donor prep for the conversion?

I bet it'll move in leaps and bounds now!

Cheers

Bennie


Ha. Donor prep. What donor prep!
Only thing that's happened is the car has had bits taken off it and sold

Anyway, torqued to spec is just the manuals way of saying 'we couldn't get it any tighter, see if you can'.

Parts order done. Gg to monies, but will be good to do all those little seals and then have an engine that isn't leaking oil...

Joss, the conversion should be about 40minute job. I did the last one on my lunch break at work.

I've heard about this myth. Must be highly skilled mechanics doing it that quick...

It's officially weekend time, so this diversion would be done by now right?!

If not, shall I start the timer? :P

Not great weather atm either unless you've got a shed.

I believe the diversion has been postponed due to no readily available helpers and less than ideal circumstances
