Default More Space Planning....

As part of my 'space planning' exercise to make sure everything fits, I've been on a bit of a buying spree....

I bought my Fuel Pumps from Rally Design at the Stoneleigh kitcar show where they had some good deals on their own 'white labeled' pumps. These worked out at about 50% of the price of branded parts. I've opted for a standard Fuel filter because it is designed for the BMW engine, cost effective and easily replaced, if necessary.

The cradles are from ebay at only £9.99 delivered! Excellent value for money and fitted perfectly.

Next up is an enclosed Air Filter from Compbrake Motorsport....

...another bargain for £36!

It's an enclosed cone filter with a cold air input pipe.

For over a year I've had my Dual Circuit brake servo for which I'm now making some mounting brackets...

I also picked up a really good tool for setting M8 rivnuts...

....and it works great.

Finally for now, I bought a couple of heater hose elbows. I had to re-position the heater box further back....

This will allow me to move the engine back by 10mm to allow for better sump clearance.

More bits arriving next week....
