I´ve probably forgot at least half of the things I´ve struggled with for the past month but I´ll give it a try!
I am finsihed with the electrics, fuse box is wired alomg with relays etc. I managed to get hold of functioning OEM relays from another scrap car I have, they look better than the newer ones (hope they work as long as they look) Gauge lighting, turn signals, number plate lighting etc is all in orking condition. WIth some help from a fellow 911/912 friend I also managed to source a perfect, black battery without any logos in the correct dimensions!
I´ve mounted the MC along with new, blue lines leading to a double-output fluid container I sourced from a BMW 2002, it fits perfectly in the original location and looks "stock" from above.
Also cleaned up under the dash and mounted it
I tried to fab brackets fr my drivers seat but ended up too high (Im 189 cm), got tired of wasting my time so I ordered a pair of LWT brackets from John Gausden in NZ. Looking forward to installing them.
Left the last stuff to the blasters
Media blasted fan
After high temp coating
I´ve also installed new seals in the rear quarter windows, inner and outer, fit´s nicely.
Also constructed a mount in the parecel shelf for 3 pt harness, pleased with the look of the drivers side!
I left a couple of generators and relays for servicing, picked them up and was really pleased with the results. Nice and clean and no more stopping in the middle of the night in middle of nowhere.. (Please don´t remind my wife)
When I overhauled the heads I found shims on the rocker stands, 1,5mm on boht sides. I assume the previous engine builder had aimed for a higher comp. or tried to solve leaking heads. I installed the rocker stands without shims and the oil channels are "In place" and I managed to set the valvescorrectly. If I have understood it correctly the rocker stands are shimmed to move the rocker stand further out since the pushrods end up beeing too long if the heads have been fly cut.
One soluition is to shorten the push rods, the other to shim the rocker stand?
The engine turns nicely and the geometry looks ok to my, untrained, eye. I will try to consult someone with vast experience in the field before I decide how do do.
(The generator pulley is just hung on, inner outer mixed up)
