K Series with Webers.
Replaced my old crossflow with a k series and fired it up for the first time last weekend.
Sounds more like a tractor than a K Series, although I’m hoping that’s down to 4 year old petrol in the tank, a hole in the exhaust manifold where the lambda sensor should be (plug on back order) and the webers needing a proper tune.
But a few points – there is a section of exposed flywheel on the offside of the engine near the crank sensor, is there a blanking plate for this, or do they all have that.
I’m struggling to find the oil pressure connection to the wiring loom, there seems to be a plug next to the oil filter, is this it?
Compared to the old crossflow it’s a pretty tight fit, I reckon only 10mm between the water rail and the chassis cross member, the alternator is also pretty close to the chassis, but I’m using a standard Rover pulley at the moment, I’m guessing a Caterham pulley might pull the alternator in a bit.
Pickie here.

The inlet manifold is a bit pony at the moment as we had to chop and change it to get the Weber filters to poke through the bonnet, but I might get it remade now I have all the right dimensions.
Thanks for any help.
