Bad day.
Welded exhaust elbow massively wrong, got confused and used the wrong marker.
Result is about 3 hours more work.
Inlet manifold is at a welding shop, having a new intake put on and the old one blocked up, can't see a way around the mounting point for the vac pump being on it so have opted to have it modded.
They have not priced it yet so it may be too expensive but other options are available
Could use a vac pump off a newer style engine but the power steering is also driven from it. Could sack off the PAS but I would like to keep it if possible.
One problem at a time and it will get there.
Anybody who wants to sell me an XUD9 for peanuts P.M me. I've spent all my money on turbos.
