SAMBO,


The LS motor fitted into the engine bay with easy, we utalised the donut LS series mounts, its a bit tricky to get the bolts on the alloy mounts to line up but thats about it.

I think we needed 6 goes to get the motor and tranny in (much easier than the 3.9Litre Rover motor I put into an MGB) my fake Cobra Replica, before I saw the light and got a real replica Cobra.

I recall this car guy telling me years ago when installing a major item get ALL the stuff so you can see where you are going. Its been invaluable to me when I tinker but having a Pro like Doug is certainly the best way to go. These car guys do it for a living and can save you so much in time and money in the long run. Sometimes its not worth skimping or going cheap on things, you tend to lose out in the end.

Someone must have put P/S into a Harrison before....

There is a billet LS series entire front pulley system I saw recently, from Texas Speed Shop i think, it was about US$2500.00, exy but looked special.



Good Luck,

STIFFY
