Right then guy's got another update for you. Bit of a joint effort today from both me and my girlfriend. Turned her into a grease monkey aswell lol.
Well the nice reconditioned oil coiler from a Cav Turbo arrived today. Was so excited that after I signed the papaerwork I went straight outside in my boxer's started lining it up lol. Here's a shot of it.
So after realising everything was all good and I had the right part I got some brekky down me and a good strong coffee and set to work with Lianne fitting the new oilcooler. Quite a pain in the ass really as I had to remove the radiator and intercooler just to undo the feed and return bolts lol. But luckily I had Lianne giving me a hand which made the work half as hard.
After the new cooler had been fitted I needed to focus my attention on the power steering as those of you who have seen my power steering thread, I was having a problem working out how to connect the C20LET to the Vectra's power steering system. All I needed to do was to add a resovoir to the power steering system and beleive me, that wasn't as easy as it sounds. But managed to get one fitted no probs and the only thing that is slightly wrong with it is that the resovoir is sitting next to the air filter rather than behind the battery due to the lack of room lol.
So when everything was done it was a case of having to tidy everything up again which gave Lianne the oppotunity to t-cut the underside of the bonnet and what a great job she did (can be seen in second pic) and I got on with adding the finishing touches to the engine such as hiding the last of the wires, black shoe polishing the black plastic areas etc and now people, the Sexy Vexy is finally finished
YAHOOOOOO!!!
Took out for a little spin about an hour ago to see how she's driving now and all I can say is WOW!!! We're so happy with it.
So what do ya think then guy's?
