- Sun Sep 18, 2011 5:23 pm #272629 decided to remove the ariel today - will be abit loud for a stereo in there
sanded, fiberglass, sanded, filler, more sanding, primer




then some more sanding and filler as there was a flat bit in the middle


decided to tackle the engine loom today
attached it to the engine and plugged everything in so i could start tucking it abit


started on the dizzy side with pulling the wires in and taping them up after pulling the slack wire



then after the whole thing was done it looked like this


so took it all off and started to cover it up with conduit tubing and taping it up



didn't cover and tape up the driver side plugs yet as wanted to check for length after a test fit



so it all fitted well, took it off again, taped up the driver side plug wiring - i have left a few wires untaped as they are for attaching to the gearbox, will do them later

- Sun Sep 18, 2011 5:24 pm #272630 yay - my silicone hose set turned today
all the way from china too - just over a week but they were cheap


just need to get some new jubilee clips or spring clips now for the new hoses

also won a new rotor arm for the dizzy cheap - should help it start up abit easier
