240K&Beyond Posted April 26, 2008 Share #27 Posted April 26, 2008 Hi Kent,You better reserve the number plate "CrazyK" now !!! Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/27638-coming-soon-to-a-k-near-you/?page=3#findComment-245399 Share on other sites More sharing options...
khughes Posted May 25, 2008 Author Share #28 Posted May 25, 2008 thought you all would be interested in this pic Fits well, my only fitting problem (other than having to modify the front turbo's oil line to clear the mounts) is that the standard oil pressure sensor is to close to the power steering pump.. so i will have to relocate that I am going to keep the RB26 sump (the custom rb25 one i have is crap anyway and didn't fit the RB25 let alone the RB26!), so i have marked up the RB25 sump, and i will have to find somebody skiled at aluminimum welding to hack and slash the sump for me. unfortuantely don't get too excited, the engine is only in for a test fitting to make sure it fits ok, it isn't quite ready to fire up yet Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/27638-coming-soon-to-a-k-near-you/?page=3#findComment-248760 Share on other sites More sharing options...

240kconvertible Posted July 21, 2008 Share #31 Posted July 21, 2008 Looking good Kent, not long now and you'll be doing burnouts in it. Good work on buying the welder too.
