It's bolted just above the oil filter at an angle. Space is v very tight. I've followed Red7/richardm6994 has done.

Re Clutch, I'm so close to starting it up that I don't really want to take the engine out, but if it does start slipping I guess I'll have to. i think when I do I'll be able to get the measurements of the existing clutch paste and see if Burton Power can match it to something g beefier

I would speak to some one like helix as you will need a cover plate with more clamping force. There isn't a lot of off the shelf choice at 220mm

See how you get on. The power delivery of the charger will be different to my turbo

Save the Arp's until the engine comes out

Fingers crossed, only 7 weeks until I'm supposed to be doing a Euro tour

I seem to be posting on multiple threads, however I though I'd update this one, I have made progress, still need to sort the tune out but it looks like I'm making about 11psi of boost.

Anyone got a megasquirt map I can have a look at to get an idea of sensible ignition timing on boost?

Another update, as posted on one of my many posts, I've mashed the pistons,

Based on the OPs specs it seems that my crank pulley is bigger and the 65mm SC pulley turns out to only be 63mm not 65mm!

The OP/Richard used the following (you'll need to view the pic)

Now given that I'm using a charger cooler so should get lower intake temps than Richard should I play safe and go for a 68mm SC pulley or play even safer and go for an even bigger pulley?

Also any recommendation on who to get the pulley made up by?

TIA
Chris
