The old girl got her 200,000km oil change today. Also made the traction control a little more aggressive as the power comes on much quicker now and the missus had a bit of a tank slapper on a wet morning on the way to work and I tweaked the timing some more for the cool air.

I took my rails to a boat repairer that does ally and staino welding. They turned out great. An option if the tapping doesn't work out for you.

What are people using for back up utilities?
I'm just using the backup function in win10 ATM but I wonder if there are better options out there.

That would be an option.

clonezilla bit of an overkill and not for everyone....I do like the fact I can do a complete re-install of the OS in about 10 to 20min with all the registry links in tact..

Turned out pretty good.
I had some fittings welded on also and sanded the weld smooth again

Sanding them would look better.

I like how 0081 mounted then on the intercooler plate but I don't think it would work with the 25mm spacer.
