Thanks for the vibes. I made the plenum myself - just cut it and shut it then paint it. I'm willing to do it for anyone if you provide the plenum. I always lift my engines using the spark plug hole and never had a problem yet. Yikes!!

Agreed Wee.

Have you cut and shut your arches for coilovers?

john looking good
have you blanked the wee dump valve off in the plenum ?

use the none return valve for the servo take off on top of the manifold if you are not using it to plumb in the the vacume line for the dump valve john

its 1/8" BSP if i remember right

i wouldnt chance it with an alloy head, but seen a few folks using plug holes for lifting

looks a tidy motor, what spec is it? (sorry if ive missed other posts)

"Turbo's make torque, and torque makes fun"

"did you know you can toast potato waffles?"

Star Mag - Yes i cut and shut the arches for the coilovers.
Steve - Yes I blanked the plenum valve.
Joey - I've never posted the full spec but will do once she's on the road. Needless to say it has loads of Benross suggested mods so my bank balance has diminshed greatly
