nuts logo.png Last night I picked up my high-flow water pump and thermostat from 4x4 adventure Club Sponsor, Adam, at ADM Motors (Nuts about 4WD) in Caulfield South, these are much better than the original pumps and also come with two gaskets (one thin and one thick) the reason being is that the water pump blades can sometimes catch the housing so if they do they say to use the thicker gasket so that the impeller doesn't foul on the housing.
A mate has been kind enough to lend me his special purpose tool so that I can correctly set up my VE pump timing advancing it to about 0.76mm, this is much easier to do out of the car than in, and before I attach all the injector lines & intake manifold.
I’m just keeping busy trying to get it back together, I think it’s going pretty well so far, next on my list will be the last of my big purchases, I need a manifold and turbo.. $$ ouch.
