    And finally after some time for my pop !
    Throttle body in place to check how it will all fit


    Then I noticed the throttle and kickdown could do with a quick mod


    Quickly on to fuel line and rest of wiring fitted right into place


    Bigger 3" filter fitted and tried for size


    Remainder of wiring completed and checked over ready to run

    Very posh, always wondered why you ditched the twin exhausts and went back to a single side one?

    Bit of work finally done on the pop, or should that be the remainder
    Changed out the double master cylinder jobby as I wanted a bit more oomph and a single fill point



    and replaced it all with new land rover stuff, easy fit, just open up a few holes and change the clevis end

    Four years since last post in this and can’t believe nobody jumped at the chance to make post #2000.
    well now it’s mine

    News on my Pop this year was new bearings in the Jag irs,a messy time consuming and meticulous job to do them right.
    I had never set them up properly ever since I started to built it in 1978,by just replacing one bearing ,removing the shims and setting them up like a normal taper bearing assy,which I did find upon tear down it had caused some damage to the grease seal runners.
    They lasted me this long ,but it was time to do them right,I finally got there after what must have been having almost everything go wrong ,including what I thought was a mismatch of early and later hub carrier parts,which proved to be a false alarm causing some agro.

    Anyway,post #2000 is all mine
