Is the top seat belt mount going to work OK.. Seems like the belt has to go way outward around seat back side..then down to latch.. Is this going to hold you in OK?? Hope it passes safety check..

Highs and low tonight.
Exhaust hanger fitted & back box.
So next fuelled, connected battery, ignition light came on (yeay) engine turned over (yeay).....unfortunately didn't start (boo).
Wondering if fuel pipes are connected correctly?

That is the first thing to check.. the most center tube from the tank unit is the supply to the engine.. Also there was a ground in the rear harness under the rear deck.. If tubing is right try jumping the FP and Grd in the dia box should run the fuel pump.. If that works start tracing wires.. and grounds

A quick way to check the fuel lines is to blow down them, the feed will be solid because of the pump, the return you will be able to blow down. Then feed to the front pipe on the manifold and return to the rear pipe next to the pressure regulator.
Or if you want to check if the pump is working properly take both pipes off put them into glass jars and turn the key, the feed should prime while cranking and for a few seconds after.

The supply should be going to the front of the fuel rail..

Thanks for the pointers, hopefully Sunday I'll get to the bottom of the issue, definitely feels like I've messed up the fuel pipe run

Left the fuel system alone today. thought I would finish mounting the seats to the rails. Mounted with M8 x 30 flanged stainless steel button /Allen bolts, and pieces of 10mm hard rubber.  Positioned, just need 8 fastenings to finish.  |

Are you going to have to cut an oval in the seat back to feed seat belt outer lower mount and latch tab through.. Then finish with edge trim..
