You need to provide info on the remote mount oil filter as i want to do something similar.
I have mounted my coil where the clutch reservoir is and that way it is out of the muck.
You going to remount your alty as well?.
I like the BWA alloys.
Nice truck Bob. .

the remote oil take off plate etc was sourced from "norm singleton"
http://www.fiatabarthclassicracing.com.au/
he sold me the take off plate and remote filter housing - had to pirtec the hoses.
NOTE: because there is a 1/8" pressure port out the front of the take off plate for oil pressure readings, and the lada one is much bigger (1/2"ish) i had to source a brass oil pressure spacer block from a hot rod store. basically it was a block of brass about 2" long, with a male thread on one end that would normally screw into an engine block where the oil presure switch would go, a 1/8" female half way up (designed for an external bonet mounted oil gauge, and a female hole on the end where the oil pressure switch would be re-fitted.
I brased the male fitting closed, fitted a 1/8" hose from the take off plate into the 1/8" hole half way up the brass billet, and fitted the lada senders on the end of the brass billet. - needed to bleed it initially but works a treat!
hope this helps
PS not re-mounting coil til i fit an exhaust cam box mounted dizzy - and will put coil through hole in firewall to inside cab.

i replaced the master cylinder with a fiat uno turbo unit as it is 1/16" larger in the bore. made the brakes better - not perfect though.
the fittings for the breaklines are a different thread so you need to get replacement lines made up
no idea which model fiat uno turbo it is off - but the guys at turin imports in adelaide would be able to send you one if you described what it was for

Went into my local and told them needed an Uno Turbo brake master cyl, they could get one but same size bore as Lada ie 19mm, they wanted to know what model it was from.
Any ideas on a bigger bore master cyl that would possibly fit?.

I have a twin weber IDF-40 manifold but won't be putting it on just yet - turns out with the idf's you only get vaccume from one cylinder, not all 4 - and with the brakes the way they are i'll try a 38-38 weber off a 3L cortina first

I would have though they balanced the vac over 2 cylinders on different cycles - ie like on a sidedraft set-up. If not, I don't see why that couldn't be easily done?
Having said that, back in the day I had a very hot 1600 Escort runing a 40/40 (DFA?) off a Capri that gave 351 Falcons a fright (yet was very drivable and reasonably econonmical to boot!), so the 38/38 might be just the ticket once you sort the jetting.

I have been told that a falcon 34ADM weber fits up and runs reasonably well, though i have not tried it myself, might be worth a crack?.

I've been told that as well - but I imagine the jetting would be a billion miles out as the Falcon is a 3.5 to 4 litre six cynlider engine...?
