SCAT Pulley

Tried to install the pulley tonight but the tinware was touching the oil pump, so i had to make a hole to give access.



This is how it looks

Everything is so tight.

At least it's in.

SCAT Full Flow filter oil Pump


This is the SCAT Full Flow I am going to install,

The first problem was that the studs were too short.

And the 2nd one was that the oil pump was hitting the block and couldn't be a perfect fit.

I first removed the studs and made some longer ones

I also had to remove some material on the oil pump, only about 1mm



I had to do the same on the block.



Job done, the oil pump is in place.
