oil gallery all set up- cooler connected
Last week I dropped in to Vintage Wiring Harness at Ringwood, Melbourne and had a chat with Paul the owner. Very interesting what/how they do things there. Purchased some of the armoured coil for the rear wiring for the tail lights and some fabric braided wiring to go to my sender units on the engine.
On the weekend it was hot again, but I did connect the oil cooler and install the oil diversion plug (see pic), the metal braided hoses are connected. I did have to alter the plumbing slightly to accommodate my mechanical oil gauge on the back of the block/ oil supply side to the cooler.
I did fit a clutch rod and check the bends & angles in preparation for bending my clutch rod and fitting it.
On the return to Melbourne I got caught up in the fire at Tallarook/Hume Hwy and got diverted back to Seymour. Stayed the night in the area as roads were closed and there was not enough info to make a safe decision regarding travel. Work did not mind.
