Yeah thought the same thing. I will be redoing the system in the future, as what's there at the mo was just a slapjob to get the car running. Rubber hose cabletied to factory fuel line is not really ideal.. Someone on here had a surge tank mounted under their car next to the fuel tank? I recall seeing a pic somewhere, can't remember if it was here or not. That's the setup I plan on going for.

Are you running rubber fuel lines or steel/copper? Copper to the engine, rubber return

In regards to fuel heating up, my surge tank does actually get pretty warm. Not sure if it's from the engine return or what, but I just assumed it was normal. Ideally ya do want a return at the top of the surge tank to main tank so it can pump any air out. Otherwise you will end up with air trapped in the surge tank

You've come this far, selling it now would be a mega loss

Criz sump has a mean as slope to fit the crossmember, with minimal baffles, so under heavy braking all the oil goes bye bye up the front of the block. Gonna wack some kinda trapdoor setup in it I think

Rubber hose to end of pickup? Anything stiff enough to not cave in on suction would be too stiff to flex sufficiently I'd imagine

Yeah, thought you were selling this? You better not be selling this, that would be the most epic fail so far

Main thing is to ensure oil cannot flow away from the pickup under cornering / braking / acceleration Otherwise, as long as it's not gonna get smashed on the road, it'll be sweet

Seems a bit backwards doesn't it? But then it is french

This would be fucking cool to see done How would the certing of it go?

Any K series will bolt straight in place of any other K series engine. They have a massive 5 wire loom connecting to the engine, pretty sure all the water pipes are in the same places aswell. Pretty much pull old block out, drop new one in. Could be done in a day.

Nothing is happier than an Austin Healey

Shorten / tub the rear and fit those fat bastards under the guards. Dunno what to do with the front, maybe just narrow the front wheels or get new ones with matching centers.

Your title says 4WD spec, so howabout jack it up, mega mud flares, roll those big fuckoff rim / tyre combo, and fucking win like a champion.

Got Friday off work so will prob roll down then 3 days in Napier will be excellent

Hrmm...

This sounds like the most perfect plan ever Apparently he's gonna slide down a hill on a board for some reason. Although I heard the hill is gonna be epic stormy this weekend so slopes will be closed. Wholey shit this is tomorrow!

Chillibin full of brew, hose feeding in through the window. Sorted

Shit yeah 5up in a FC, I think we're gonna get to know each other very well..

I may be wearing a slightly too tight brown suit. So be warned

me and rot808 in the seven leaving aucks bout 2 ish hot ham sam is too. Yowzer! wanna lift still? Yeap will take a lift

Need to sus a ride now. Will supply brew of choice / road job

They run a very similar setup to the Crowns which seem to be more than happy with mega slam, so they shouldn't be too bad. Guess ya don't know 'till ya try it though

This is what the Corona rocks in the front Standard leaf on live axle in back. Easy enough to lower, shorter springs for the front + blocks / reset leaves in back. Sorted.
