Almost there on the getting it fitted side of things, just need 2 bolts drillin' n' threadin'
I'm seriously worried after doing some measurements that it's not going to fit down the back :/ it measures 9 inches from block to the outermost part of the blower, that's with no manifold adapter plates! Which I'm not using luckily. Also one of the exhaust studs needs trimming by about 1cm because the compressor wheel is so large.
I think I may have pushed it too far this time, I hope not though as I've spend a fair amount on this project so far.
Here's my down pipe
