Glad there was room Perry. Now write that down somewhere, so you remember to fix it next winter when the engine is out of the car.

One of these days I'll learn... If you've already got 100 lbs of crap in a 1 oz bag, don't try to put more in it...
Spent last evening trying to locate my oil accumulator and all of the plumbing that goes with it. When I coupled up the check valve, tee, and solenoid (all of which have female threads so require nipples between them) to the oil filter, it all looked real nice - until I put the fuel pump on and found that the inlet line wouldn't fit anymore... arrgh...

lol - I'll have to agree with you there Mike.
The other afternoon I was walking through the shop to get something and walked past the front of the car. I don't know why it struck me then, but I looked at it and the engine is as wide as the entire body - and it's a left steer car! hmmm...

That's just shy of perfect. Wider is better, it helps with stability.
