does anyone have plans of simplified wiring harness that I can control what I did before my first start?
I have some concerns about the EXUP and fuel supply....

thank you in advance

corbi try the search ( if it works) there are lots of very helpful tips on the promo builds Roofless has the same engine i think.

[roofless]

yes......I have 5pw, but we dont use the exup. Wiring diagrams are available from pro-motive if you ask Phil or Darren nicely

good to have you with us - good luck with the build

[corbi]

Thank you and nice to meet you !

if you don't use the EXUP what do you do with the "outlet" ?

Thank you and nice to meet you !

insert a blanking plug - tapered steel, and use 'threadlock' or similar.

thank you very much, I also wanted to know how did you do to the oil pressure and
water temperature and oil?
I have no dashboard R1 so I need to branch the gauge independently

if anybody have a solution....

water temperature is done with an in-line insert to the top radiator hose...............



oil pressure and oil temperature is done by using a sandwich plate between the oil filter and the block - screws into place and then you have two insert points for sender units.



both are available on ebay but make sure you get the right sizes......oil sandwich plate I think is M14.......

[corbi]

Thank you ! Your help is precious !

Hello,
Are you sure is M14? Also what if one wants to add an oil cooler? Any ideas on this? Been done?

Absolutely fantastic, love the paint and the installation... what a great space to work in as well.

Is the triangular alloy box in the boot the fuel tank? How come it's that shape?
