Just looked at my top hose that goes to the radiator as standard it bends upwards and I was just going to turn it 180 degrees to bend downwards. However if I just get a straight length of hose from thermostat it will fit perfectly with the height of my new radiator. Nice and simple.

That's what they did with mine. You don't want your rad to low or it will be lOwer than your bumper

Bit more spending today. Decided I didn't like the play in the belt tensioner bearing. So I bought a new tensioner...of course it will be fitted with some new bolts too!

Decided to made a cardboard radiator today. It's not too good at holding water though. As soon as I know how deep Radtecs dual core radiators are I'm going to make a dummy out of hardboard or thin plywood.

Then I'll get all the measurements exactly as the final version will be and will probably trim the old rad housing a bit more. Once I have my wooden radiator it can then be fitted with all mounts in place to make sure it doesnt foul anything. I think I'll be able to re-use the original upper radiator mounts and hoses too.

I also need my new air filter before I trim any more off the remains of the slam panel. I just hope it's strong enough once it's trimmed.

Should be enough room at the front for one or two fans.

Order my ITG Sausage filter and backplate from MotorsportWorld yesterday...another £144. Will take about a week to make it. The 125mm internal depth filters are made to order.

A few little tweeks today...well I put some of it back together...all in the name of attention to detail.

New bolts for the tensioner.

 


New bolts for the sump...

 


Old bolts...

 


New bolts...

 


All fitted back together...

What flow rate filter did you order? Road or competition use?

I ordered a Megaflow filter which is capable of flowing about 3 times as much air as my engine will consume.

What you think about this??? Use the original air conditioning pump mounts on the engine block and sump to fit the Saxo/106 steering pump to....will need a mount fabricating but it's solid and keeps the weight nice and low.
Hoses will be nice and short and also means no drillling of bodywork.

It's up to you were you fit it Paul, fitted mine in the same place the 106 has Thers fitted so it was a direct fit using the rubber mounted bracket that comes with it. Also it's accessible if you need to change/top up the pas fluid it's only like 3holes you have to drill iirc But be different and do it your way Wink

It might not even fit under the alternator and oil filter but I shall see. Not sure how it would like the vibration from the engine either. Some rubber in the mounts would be useful. I'll see if it fits when I buy one. I just don't like drilling bodywork!

I'd like to see how the electric pump fits on the 206 1.6 HDi.

Filter has arrive today. Cut the back plate to fit. Just needs a Dremel to cut away the burrs from drilling it.

Next step is the Saxo PAS pump and then I'll know what space the radiator car fill.

Still great progress mate, one day you never know she might be complete Wink

Good to see the attention to detail is still there, but on the subject of power steering pumps, i only did my conversion because i felt the original looked quite ugly.....

Ugly? Well that could be said yes. The electric pump is also an opportunity to fit some nice braided hydraulic hoses too...

Trimmed the remains of the radiator housing a bit today to fit round the air filter. Still needs another 5mm removing to give more room for the engine to move on its mounts.
I'm just keeping the slam panel to support the grille and provide a secure lock for the bonnet. I wouldnt think what's left is strong enough to secure the bonnet when driving.
