Or send me a dwg with the dims so i can myself. It's a cracking fit that is. Coming along nicely!!I have a template for the top one... the bottom one (its not really a bottom one tbh it goes on the side and bolts to the alternator) i havent finalised yet. But if you give me about 4-6 weeks i will have a good template of both, not sure if it will work on all engines, as i have a 3mm decomp plate so have had to put that in to the bracket template.I could possibly make something...... depends on what interest is like!!John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember you thinking about putting it before the charger..Yeah i was thinking about it, as thats how it is in the mini. But then i realised that i didnt have enough room for the bypass valve so then decided it was a silly idea and have gone for the more simple approach.John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
