Build Diary - 23rd July 2005
|
Tiger recommend using the std Mondeo water pump pulley, this however isn't grooved and I should imagine that wouldn't do the belt a lot of good after time. This is easily resolved with the use of a Ford Focus water pump pulley which is grooved. |
|
The 4PK900 belt that Tiger supply was never going to fit over the pulleys, this was swapped for a 4PK925 which is 25mm longer. This was too big now so the alternator bottom bracket was spaced away from the block with a few washers. |
|
Now the gearbox is in I could fit the battery tray panel. The outside wasn't riveted yet as I need to fit the side panel first. |
|
The tunnel top panel marked out before cutting. |
|
Tunnel top panel in place. This is being fitted with rivnuts and M6 allen headed bolts so I can remove it for access to the prop. handbrake and gearbox should I need to. |
|
The n/s engine mount plate needs the corner cutting off to enable the starter motor to fit. |
|
Starter motor fitted!. |
