...or as I like to call it, "Warwickshire's Greatest Prank of All Time". Blaurgh. Two of the steering box bolts hold a pedal bracket that has to align with another bracket, which has to be installed loose but first, because the second's bolts are in the way. The first bracket has to be installed at a funny angle, because the rod that has to line them up only fits in one way past the exhaust manifold...
The steering box fights you all the way on, because it stabilizes the firewall. Also, because some juggins designed the throttle linkage to foul on the intake manifold and mount it to the steering box. Also because the steering box fits so variably it sometimes requires a half inch of spacers from factory to fit correctly. Also because firewalls rust like mofos and rebuilding them exactly right holes-wise is un possible. Did I mention this whole game involves the brake master not being in place so you can work both sides of the firewall while losing circulation because SHARP HOLE OW.
Long story short, I located Solihull's village idiot. (And the one here. Me, for not working on RHDs.) Jimmies status: rustled enough I typed this. On. My. Phone.

Since when did you get a smartphone?
Or did you type the whole thing out with T9?
