the fact that i did it with the shell on was a hassle now im still on the radiator and sorting the cooling lines the kit i used was sposed to be for a 2 litre kombi but i got it in a fair bit of grinding /clearancing was needed and had to mod the starter to fit

Gday with the starter problem In my 180B powered baja an I used auto starter it clears the kombi pressure plate & is slightly stonger turning over. I have just moved the radiator to the front and used 32mm poly pipe for hose front to rear working really well
