Thermostat/Ignition pack

I have a inlet manifold blank on order (£24 delivered) so can hopefully start looking at the inlet side shortly.

Last night spent an evening in the garage with Mr Bling measuring up for the water rail & thermostat housing. Eventual plan appears to bring the water round to the side of the head where I will then use the Pinto thermostat and housing, with the outlet facing forward to hook up to the existing hoses. Hopefully.

Also offered up the coil pack. Once removed from its original pressed steel mounting bracket, it will sit nicely on the side of the pedal box on the bulkhead, which keeps it out of the way of the water rail above and the oil filler point.

This weekend hope to make the alternator bracket and the water rail unit.
