    Cheers Mud, that was my very first attempt. by the end I was on the handbrake and actually worked out a smoother way round. Had a ball but at the end of it 2 nuts on my turbo manifold were loose, found out its common problem on ford turbos.

    Definitely a top first effort.

    I had an early BA XR6 Turbo ute and the manifold came loose on that when it was about 2 years old.
