He's a cock!

He had 2 cars on his drive so he couldn't get his van on there anyway, when I asked him if he wanted me to move it he said, "Did you ask my wife if you can park there?" "No, do you want me to move it?" "ive only popped back for 15 min" " So do you want me to move it?" He got out ignored me and walked off. "So do you want me to move it?" Nothing. " shall I move it?" Still nothing. So I said f.ook you then if your going to ignore me it can f.ooking stay there. And that's were it stayed.

Short lived success though, few months ago lost all oil pressure so car has been sitting until I had time to get the engine out. As I thought, this what I found.

This is the pump that was in the engine prior to my rebuild, HV pump I assume was put in when engine was stroked. The only part I didn't change :roll: A stock pump is going back in with a HD drive, plenty adequate on stock oil ways and I wont be reaching 7000rpm. Hindsight is a wonderful thing, if you've got it.
