Yeah, but I've already paid out for all my bits now, so wanted to use what I had. Plus, it's one of those jobs that you only ever have to do once, and will look neat.

I did as much as I could with it, but am now farming it out to various friends and relatives. My friend john had the taps at work to thread the 3/8 and 1/8 bsp holes and so that should be done now. Then it's going to my cousin max, as he, hopefully has access to a machine shop to get the recessed bits done.

Sandwich plate is done.

Hopefully there will be enoughe clearance now.

Finished running all the lines underneath the car now too.

Sandwich plate and senders are fitted.

...and yes I have refitted the exhaust manifold it does clear! Phew.

Also finally trial fitted the exhaust. I bent up a bit of tube to make a mount/steady for the can.

The exhaust fits really snug and I like that it is mainly hidden by the rear valance. The little end pipe on the can points down 45 degrees, so just had to cut a little aperture in the valance.
