A few more questions....
Discussion
Just finishing the last few jobs before getting the Tuscan back on the road.....
Can someone post a decent picture of where their Oil pressure sensor block is mounted? The suspected holes for mine look like it would foul the A/C compressor.
Also, can someone confirm that the centre 'L' hangers for the exhaust fit facing backwards towards the rear of the car?

The rear exhaust hangars do indeed have the small 'leg' facing forwards through the rubber inserts.
I had to re-locate my oil pressure sensor block by getting a piece of 3mm flat ali bar cut to about 25mm x 40mm self tapping that to the grp and then mounting the 'block' to the ali with self tapping screws.
Several holes in the grp and chunks of missing grp, indicated various previous attempts to fix in position. I've put mine just by the alternator. Simple enough to move by unscrewing from ali plate.

Thanks Nick. So the threaded part of the exhaust "L" shape hanger is to the rear? And hangs down between the rubber mount and the boot bulkhead?
Can the clutch feed pipe be fitted to the Bellhousing with the gearbox and engine in the car? I managed to get the pipe on to the bellhousing after a lot of messing around but can't see how I could tighten up the fitting. I'm thinking I may have to cut the jaws off a 15mm spanner and then re-weld it back on at about an 80 degree angle. Anyone have any experience of this?

FOT, it'll be obvious where the threaded part should be from the orientation of the small bracket on the pipe(s) - the threaded part of hangar goes through the hole on this small bracket to support the pipe/exhaust aft of the cats.Can the clutch feed pipe be fitted to the Bellhousing with the gearbox and engine in the car?

Can't help with the clutch pipe onto the bell housing - never done it. Phone Dom or Jason for advice. Nick
