The 1j/7m Intake manifold in final stage of polishing, needs the final polish n buff
The fan was really letting the whole look of the engine down so i gave it a good cleanup, now looks brand new!!! :D
The Intercooler piping will be now going where the battery used to be so i needed to hide all those yukky wires
So i made a fuse box cover, not bad for a home job ;)
My battery has been relocated in the boot and this is the box i will be using to house the battery :)

Flanges are made for the Throttle Body Extension :D
Extension Pipe & flanges now welded together and bolted on :D
TB extension polished up, just the throttle body to go :)
Still to complete the TPS wing & cut one piece off the throttle linkage :D
Relocated the overflow bottle to the other side so as to not impede airflow to the oil cooler
Remounted the oil cooler and replacing banjo bolts with pushlock fittings
Bought an oil filter relocation kit to make the filter a 5min job :D
It includes a thermostat so the bigger oil cooler doesn't overdo the cooling :)
Oh yeah! that's a nice easy place to change it heh
Massive Ford Filter :)
Oil filter adaptor on the block
Hoses running through the stock air cleaner hole
Custom tranny lines made to go the opposite way as the ss manifold doesn't allow for tranny cooler lines

Altho it looks like they're touching they're actually not ;)
