PI preparations

Some progress has been made towards the PI conversion for the GT6 with new seals fitted to the metering unit pedestal and new O rings and seal for the Lucas fuel pump, which was then run-in on the bench under no load, watching the current drawn go down from around 2 to 1.35amp.




Meanwhile I had another trial fit of the exhaust manifold and inlets to check for any obstructions. The last time this was done the car was not complete and on the road, so things such as the clutch and heater return hose are now in place and will need to be moved. This should be no great problem as I had intended to replace both items anyway.
