Thanks guys

I am going to fix a few issue before registering as there is no rush for me to get it on the road.

I have found out that I need some peugeot handbrake return springs. Right handside was not releasing without the spring.

I will remove the cross member and press out the solid rubbers. Spoke to Burtons last night and a few of their customers have reported bad vibration with a world cup cross members for street so they suggest replacing mounts with Poly 14 Capri M1/Escort Mk1 Leaf Spring Rubbers. The Burtons clients who have done this have reported that it reduced vibration quite well.

Pulling the haltech loom out to run a couple of additional switched 12volt wires to run the VCT and Thermo Fan. I have only just learen't that the PWM ouputs switch to ground.

Need to bleed the front and rear brakes.

Then I will take if for a drive down my street in two weeks and see how those changes work.

Regards

Mr GrumpyMK1
Here are the pictures. Did you get the handbrake return springs? I am finding them hard to find.
