I've bought stuff from cemex before, hes aright, but he buys cars and breaks them so anyone could have told him it had an atb in it, he should have checked before selling though.

copper sprung washer and a copper deforemed nut ron. The nuts are ovalised so they go on tight and dont back off. Just use the same as the ones you put the standard inlet manifolds on with.

fitted all my manifold ,turbo and wastegate together today
then trial fitted to block to check for clearance
and had a slight problem with this
i had a spare dipstick pipe with a warped flange so i bent one of them with a bit of heat and have cut the 2 up to make one that should work just got to take it to the welders tomorow to get welded
also had to turn the outlet on the rockercover slightley , had to stick a brush in it to get it to turn with out cracking the paint
also picked up a set of 15 inch steelies to get banded so i can run some wide tyres for the strip
and finaly had my ramp wired in
