Is that your original torque converter or did you get a reconditioned one? Is that the strap fitted by Ashcroft? So clean - shame you'll never see it one it's fitted!! :D

I'm not sure as it says modified TC on the invoice. Holes appear to align at first check.

Yes, better than my angle bar.

Shopping List of needs is growing.

Popped in to LotusBits in passing, for a new thermostat and gasket (and a replacement housing - dont ask). My new old bottom draw supply thermostat was the wrong one and was too tall for the housing.

Rob, LB's new spares guy sorted me out.

Also, had a rummage around the upstairs stock shelves like a kid in a sweet shop.

New A/c condenser and steering hoses caught my eye, amongst things. As well as a shiny refurbed diff.
