I'll start with a trial fit of the ABL sump on the AEB cylinder block, it wont stay on as even if it fits i'll have to make an oil return inlet on it from the turbo.

If you have to empty a fuel tank simplest way is take the return off the filter drop in a can and idle the motor till it drained. We run S49 round till it was on the red but still got two and a half gallons out of the thing. As it drew air it ran lumpy and gradually slowed down, it ran like that for a fair while. It got a bit emotional Molly said "ahh look it dont want to die". I said its not going to die, its having a heart and lung transplant. It will return. Is there a doctor in the house?

Thats why i've got this in bits up the side the house,if it goes wrong i can bail indoors and regroup.Learning all the time. I hope to explain a lot of the wiring as i go as that always seems to be glossed over when folk do motor swaps. I can leave the cooling fan wiring along the front alone and keep the ABL alternator and loom in place, starter to i think. So its becoming clear'r.
