Went through tightening the brake and fuel lines then drilled and final (!) fitted all to the chassis.

Fitted the SBC motor - now I can see why they say "shorty water pump and pulleys" in the instructions - there's a 1mm gap between the steering rack and bottom pulley. Oh well, that's unfortunate, I was hoping to use the ones that came free with motor.

Everything else fit well, including mechanical fuel pump.
