I’m currently most of the way through installing the oil cooler. It has been quite an involved and frustrating job. In particular, access to the factory oil filter block is very difficult. Removing the alternator was also a pain. The whole thing would have been easier if the inlet manifold was removed but that is a huge job in itself. At one stage the last bolt for the filter block was not going to budge so it almost came to that but thankfully didn’t. If anything leaks, I will be distraught because I’ve had enough of working on the car for a little while.

The good news is I have been documenting everything which will appear on a new page. A sump page will also be added at the same time.

Today the booking for the tuning of the car will also be finalised.
