Welcome Llewellyn
There is a fitting on top of the intake manifold at the back .
I am not familiar with the perfect management but the input is taken from the igniter and because it's a 6 cyl now the revcounter must be recalibrated.

The diesel rev counter won't work, you can contact me, i'll swop for a petrol one.

There is a banjo fitting on top of the manifold for the booster

thx for the help.
i actually have a few more questions, but they slip away soooooo easily....

a) Does the 7m power steering pump work with the hi-lux steering box?

b) the 7m i have got a sump hump in the middle? Am i gonna have height issues clearing the crossmember?

Many thx
