Will mean some replacement of oil and water hoses using banjo fittings (M12 I think) and high temp oil/water hose. Also the bit turbo inlet hits the block so that will need trimming back.

More engine installation work
So, nearside rail removed, turbo now fits, but we turned it round 180 degrees on the manifold flange.

Engine mount, sump
Top view showing n/s engine mount and chassis rails
Close up of engine mount spacers, turned from aluminium
Shows how much the sump sits below the chassis.
As can be seen, that chassis rail will have to go.. a quick look on the net shows many 7 kits only have 1 rail so we're not too worried about chassis strength.
