Engine mount mod

The Pace oil pump has connector plates to allow the use of an oil cooler without the need of a sandwich plate. Unfortunately on my car, the upper plate collidse with the engine mount.

This meant, lifting the engine, unmount the bracket, saw, file, try, saw, file, try ... until there was enough place to mount the pump. Later, I will use one of the plates to connect the oil temperature sensor.

The Monza fuel filler mounted for good. The rising fuel price calls for a lockable insert.
Cheers.

The way to Monza

Nothing compares to professional craftsmanship. Shown here with a hose made to my specs to connect the differential housing with the breather. In this case, it is a recycled brake fluid reservoir.

Remember those posh brake fluid reservoirs from CNC? Now they are coupled with the brake master cylinders. Again with bespoke hose made to my specs from the same shop.

This filler is called "Monza". I like it's classic looks. As described earlier, I hope to be able to add it to my car. Tonight I welded a handmade bracket to the chassis and mounted it for trial just above the tank. Difficult to deduce how it will look in the end, but I'm confident that it will add even more classic touch.
Cheers.
