Got the dump pipe done today also had to get a new pipe made up from airbox to turbo cos the old Millweld one did didn't quite fit nicely with the new setup and was hitting badly on the back of the alternator. Anyways Lilydale mufflers & towbars did a really good job on it. Had to get it towed there & back, had it booked in twice before and had to cancel so think would have been pushing my luck postponing again lol. A few little things to finish & check over everything then might try starting it tomorrow sometime . . Bit scary tho !

Yay motor is all back in and purring like a rough old TD42 kitten. Sounds a lot smoother than before actually and seems to want to rev out better than before even tho its not run in yet. Power is pretty modest at the moment bit will get about 1000 K on it then get it in to dieseltec to get it tuned. Think I'm about done for now anyway time to enjoy the thing

How do they want you to run it in?

No idle at all, just drive it with a bit of variety of speed and load and give it to it a bit within reason and don't baby the thing which is pretty much what i would have reckoned myself. Change oil @ 500K then 2000K then shes should be all good hopefully. .
