Hi again, Thanks for the feedback.
The Air con pump is like 5mm from tower but I will look at that soon.
There should be a way around the problem.
Photo shows car sitting a bit lower. New kings low to suit windsor motor. Pretty right I think

I'm doing the same conversion, EB 5.0l/auto into XW. What did you do with the power steer pump? Have you got your dash all working yet?
Cool car, hope it all turns out well.
Cheers,

Hello again,
Sooty, The power steer pump was left in place with a loop hose to keep the fluid in. May want to use it later. I would like to see some photos of your 5l W
Thanks Mus & Mick, revhead & all others.
Hoodlining going in, A bit in that, Had to get a mate to help me with it,

Well done dude makes a classic driveable with overdrive auto, compared to Clevo you'll get much better fuel figures even LPG conversion (if daily driven), they always bag the 5l EFI's but even 165kw like mine NF Fairlane is the same as XTGT 230 hp, so it'll be interesting to see how she goes without all the added weight that late models carry around

Wow! Great work mate! Retro tech!

I'd love to drive a classic car as a daily (won't be long before my EB Ghia is a classic lol), but after having the mod con's of EFI, power windows, a/c & power steer, I couldn't go back to a classic as a daily unless it was something like this! I'm sure it will be much easier to live with having the injected windsor under the hood!

Cheers
