Dave, I had a quick scan and didn't see it mentioned so apologies if you have, but what size housing did you get for the hot side?

Yes the stock heat shield has been retained. It was trimmed previously for the VF52.

Interesting, most people have been steering me towards the 8cm housing for the 2.5L and the 7cm being good for the 2L?!? They reckon the spool difference is neglible, but better top end - I hate conflicting info!

Might just leave it alone and stick with the VF52........its a deadly path I'm looking down, before I know it I'll be darton sleeving the block and going nuts.
