Nice work, flying along. The ads on hoses should be standard BSP, common size even even over there. Waiting for my two carriers from NZ now!

Looking good, glad to see another carrier coming along, Paul did you buy the 2 carriers from "Mark" NZ that have been listed recently?

As I have had some PMs regarding my recent posts I edited the one on the oil cooler lines on the lengths of the hoses. Also here is the measurements of the ball/sleeve on the Exhaust down pipes so you can get some made up for your project. Just a side note that if the cast L bows in the floor were new it should be 1 1/2" ID but with mine i found that they were both different in sizes and I got the Sleeves custom machined to fit each side as I found that they can be as much as .070 larger ID.

Well I had a pretty good week overall and I got all of the conduit installed as well as the wiring. The rear engine compartment is now all wired and hooked up, Installed the rad and I was able to install the frame work around it as well as the rad side covers. This coming week I have some more fabrication to do as I have to make up some engine covers as well as a few more pieces.

I see Dirk has those and also a 'yellow' one with 'Made in Canada'. Would the Yellow one be correct for my MK2? Ron
