Really nice work.

Did you ever concider the Ford Barra straight six? Or is that to tall to fit?

Alternator drive belt adjustment designed and made. Cleaned and painted after the photo was taken. the pulley wheel is on a slotted bracket behind, this gives the necessary adjustment. I then measured the string and looked up what vehicles had that length of belt - 1020mm and a Punto .

Plumbed in the fuel pressure regulator
The Jag has a feed but no return pipe at the fuel rail so all done at the tank end. I have cut an access hatch in the boot. Just need to make a mounting bracket.

Completed the ecu wiring board and secured it in the drivers footwell. It is removable on an umbilical to give easy access.
