Timely thread, I have this to do myself in the next few weeks - useful photo 👍👍

M12 m8 🔧👍

I'll check m8 and let you know tomorrow 👍

Found it 👍

Thanks, just search for 'corrado graveyard'?

Interested to know if anyone has a spare tunnel Heat Shield, after the rear most section as mine seems to be missing - part no 191803309L Thanks

Hi Si, Yeah seen the above. After much deliberation ive decided to use a high spec replacement for the intank pump (Not Walbro) and going to fit a Bosch 044 inline with a performance filter, sure the Walbro option would work but i dont think its without its issues - maybe a bit of overkill but given the 044's heritage its a safer option and guarnteed to perform/cope. I'll stick up a few pics once i get to reassembly 👍

After many months in the engine bay it is time to tackle the rear end, last 10 days has resulted in removal of everything under the rear of the car: Rear beam, brakes & lines, shocks off - all metal work gone for powdercoat; fuel tank, fuel lines and pumps heat sheilding off. Now scrubbing down for underseal prior to re-assembly. Started on halloween which was quite apt given the suprises underneath, fortunatly no major issues with the body which after 31yrs is testiment to the quality. Photo from along the way:

Hi, Now facing a similar issue to the above and looking for some anyone who has used a Walbro in tank pump. Having transplanted a G60 into what was a 16v i am now at the point of overhauling the fuel delivery side, my 16v had the twin pump setup which is only fit for the bin so am looking to setup as per the single pump arrangement with a Walbro 225 in lieu of the standard in tank. Has anyone fitted one of these? If so what which Walbro pump or kit did you use? Also is there any benefit in installing a swirl pot after the pump with this setup? Any help appreciated, read on various forums that it can and has been done. Thx

Thanks for the feedback folks, not running yet... when its every nut and bolt it only ever seems to creep along. Latest work: 3.5bar FPR, New FMIC/Rad/Oil cooler, cam belt and psteering assey fitted, boost pipework run, front wheels and spacers fitted . calipers re-painted as the colour looked cr*p - few pics below:

PM sent. Do you have any pics of the digifant fuel pump?

Hi, is the 3.5bar FPR still available? Thanks

Thanks Si, Dox, Original PAS pump so there shouldn't be any difference there; the arrangement of the rest looks right against ETKA, Bentley etc and sits right on the engine - I agree it can only be the spacer. I'll have another hunt and check there isn't a spacer mixed up with some other parts 👍

Hi Dox, Yes its as you note above, second pulley on the outside of the crank with a small belt that runs to the PAS pump (pic below); for some reason i have a difference in alignment of about 10mm that looks odd and not sure it is correct. Thx

I know G60 camps are quite divided in respect of the benefits or problems from deleting the boost return, the previous owner of my engine had done this modification and i am now looking at the options and then sourcing the associated parts as of course some are missing/damaged. In honesty having scoured the web, im still unclear on boost return or not - but also then came across the SWG twin inlet setup, has anyone got experience of this? Thx

No closer to resolving this one, there's no offset on the pulley so reversing it makes no difference. Any pics appreciated just to check arrangement. Thx

Hi Sean, pulley is flat but seems to be about 10mm different (see below - you can see the other pulley in the background)

Hi All, Re-assembled my power steering pump and for some reason its not aligned with the pulley on the crank, Etka shows a spacer but i never had one - can anyone post any pics of this area so i can check the arrangement? Thx

Thanks Philly-R6, Ive only seen the layout as per your picture above; ive gone with that 👍

Looks sweet, you have to love fresh paint 😍

Morning All, Been a long time since ive updated this and having cleared some time to throw at the C thought i should get back on it. Backstory... Bought my C as a 1.8 16v in 2000, as a 17yr old had to wait to drive it - on the road 2005 and living the dream; '09 Engine out and transplanted into a Mk1; G60 engine sourced. 2009-18 Family, House renovation x2 and collecting parts for conversion 2016-20 Slow progress but moving towards back on the road. Recent news: Engine stripped, news seals, HG, sump, block/head stripped and painted, subframe stripped and refubished all new bolts/rubbers/fittings, engine bay painted with all new brakelines/brake cyl/clutch cyl, battery relocated, new engine mounts, decat, all new belts, Sachs clutch, new plugs, refurbished drive shafts, Brembo disks & pads, new wheel bearings, AP Coilvers.......etc etc - you get the idea, no stone left unturned. All efforts focused on the engine bay for a min but the rest will have to follow before respray and retrim. Few pics from the recent weeks -

Im in if still taking names 👍

Hi all, Looking to purchase a silicone pipe kit from Roose for my G60, options avaliable are an early (88-90) and late (90-93) - does anyone know the difference(s)? My donor engine came from a '90 so not sure which bracket mine will fall into? doesnt help that a few of the origional pipes which would provide some insight are missing 😒 Images attached for reference, early kit is top image Thx

Thanks Si
