Finally got all my plumbing sorted. We have yet to see if she will run with a standard ECU or I'll have to go aftermarket with all the changes to the intake.
Next time ( if there is a next time ) I'm cutting the van up, rather than moving the turbo and keeping van mods to a minimum to make it fit.

Anyhow what do you guys think? Thats as long as you can see these photos.

Looks like a really neat job you are doing there!
How much ground clearance have you gained by the sump and exhaust mods? Have you just got rid of the oil/water heat exhanger?

Thanks. The sump now measures 10cm, that sits a little higher than the lowest part of the backend of bus. It's about same for the manifold.

My engine never had one of those oil cooler things above the filter ? Not sure if there are only on UK engines ?

Just finished off making the breather tank the other day, sort of lawn mower style.
