Engine work

Fitted two new foam air filters to my V8 today, nice to have some clean air coming into the carbs.

New alternator too, this is a smaller one, so I can rotate it into the correct place when my new bracket arrives.

Hi, any chance you could post up some pics of the mods to the bulkhead? I am looking to do this in the future and keen to see how others have modded the passenger footwell?

Thanks in advance!

Sorry for posting picture by picture but was on my phone :)

The mats inside are standard series floor mats from britpart so you can see how much extra room is needed by the sections I have cut out.
