the tinkerer, that little white thing is part of the handbrake assembly, one bracket is removed and welded back on in the horizontal position under the centre of the subframe and the twin cables are simply pulled forward to operate the shoes, so no one off bits machined.

not had the engine running since it was removed from the car but i dont really anticipate any problems with with it running again, all the original black boxes and fuse boxes are here for it so it could still be plugged into diagnostics if required. The later 700s and 1000s have far more electronic sensors to play up thats why i chose the 600 pulse.
