fitted a power steering pump, then took it off again as the pulley bolt holes were different by 4mm.

Fitted everything back together on the 3.2 I'm currently working on. So - oil cooler, cambelt kit, full service, cam cover gaskets...

Fired up first time, sounds sweet :)

One follower took a while to shut up, but has been fine since...

If you set your normal mobile to call forwarding to your car number then incoming when in the car is completely hands free.  Put your most used numbers into the car sim and you can dial out hands free as well...  :y
