Ta for the thread size Skinner. I actually went and grabbed my calipers and figured it out in the end. God I love these things.
Right so I am having a right pain with these oil fittings guys. I get the feeling some of these threads are 1/8npt and others 1/8 bpst. So I am having a laugh with the guy on the phone @ merlin Motorsport over the setup and what the hell I have in my hands here. Will wait for the new fittings and we shall see if they fit and of they are not far off I will PTFE and tweak up and hope for the best. This engine needs to be in and running. Killing me.

You're welcome to use what is left of mine so long as you leave some for me
Awesome, yeh the 5.1 1.3 box is getting to be too short a ratio i think, either back to 1.3 or a facelift 1.0
Ive always found the coolants are much the same, so long as its suited to alli i dont think you can go far wrong
