It's been a long time since I did an abrasive wheels course but I'm pretty sure it's that normal metal cutting disks contain aluminium dust or something like that, so it's not the angle grinding that's the issue, you just need a specific disk for aluminium.

@11guyinthechair 14 күн бұрын
@ Im from Latvia. Sadly most of old opels are almost completely gone. Rusted away. My uncle owned vectra a. Man that vectra was a solid car. That c20ne was a tank of an engine. The body gave out and rotted away to a point it was not worth welding anymore.
@DanielBall 14 күн бұрын
@11guyinthechair sadly it's the same in the UK, a lot of Novas or Corsa were used for budget grass racing, and were killed off like that. I agree the old 2.0 engines were great.

You don’t need to fill the box with Power steering fluid, just cut the inlet port off flush and fill the hole with chemical metal. That’s all I did with my Locked boxes. Hopefully it’s a locked box with adapter rings rather than just stuffing a couple more clutch plates in there to lock it up.
@DanielBall 16 күн бұрын
Perfect, thank you
@sonnycoton7483 16 күн бұрын
@ cavalier or Calibra turbos were all I worked on for long time. Hopefully your going to pull the T-box apart and check it through. They are fairly sturdy if set up right and paired with a Quaife ATB to take the strain off of the T-Box the better.
@DanielBall 16 күн бұрын
@sonnycoton7483 I will strip it yeah, how do you fit an ATB, the diffs are different? I have an ATB and it isn't the same. Also how does it take the strain off. It drives off the final drive so it shouldn't make a difference surely?
@sonnycoton7483 16 күн бұрын
@ they did a 4x4 ATB for the f20/f28 box. It takes the strain off as with a open front diff all the torque will go through the TXB if one front wheel looses traction, I’ve blown a few boxes up until I put a ATB in the front. They’re getting rare now. Lol

Nice project mate 😊 I would say though that the rear diff mount should sit down upon something inside of being upside, as you have it now. Just cos you're relying on the threads of those two bolts to take all the stress instead of a lower brace that takes the strain and the bolts are just a method to locate the mount. Just a thought 😉
@DanielBall 17 күн бұрын
Thank you, I plan to make some sort of lower brace, that way if it did ever fail it would just drop on that. But it should be fine. Thanks

Getting closer mate. Making good progress despite personal life and the new addition. Interesting to see that you didn’t actually have to cut that much of the floor pan away to mount the transfer box. I was expecting a huge hole in the floor!
