It goes in from underneath without too much spillage.
The bracket you mention probably secures the end of the cylinder on the servo to the frame.
Slacken this off first, dont tighten it until the servo is loosely in place.
Then tighten them all up together.

Re: Merry Xmas everyone
Yes,
Merry Christmas to everyone. Very pleased the forum has increased in strength and members.
I detect a new undercurrent of enthusiasm for the E type in all its forms that will keep it fresh for the younger generation.
So I think 2021 will be a good year for the E type, and hopefully us lot too.

Re: Compression Test
I have a 4.2 with 8:1 pistons which runs perfectly with 175 psi in all the bores, so I think you have nothing to worry about.

Very nice Simon.

Re: Manual Box with 2.88 Rear Axle
Here is me driving a 4.2 with standard 4sp. synchro and a 2.88 rear end.
No worries! Been all over Europe.
"Slightly" ungraded engine, but low speed torque same as a standard SU 4.2.
Not too much clutch slipping.

Re: E type full build S1 4.2 Coupe
Phoenix, I assembled and fitted a bonnet last week. I have done a few. I started with a new center section. The rest of the parts were second hand. As you suggest, it is easiest to assemble up side down. Assemble the front clam and wings first, using the headlight rim and front of the wheel arch as ...

Well done Simon. Chemistry I have always found to be very difficult. I left it alone after A levels. I dont know how you do it. Glad to see you selected a picture of my silver S2 for the magazine (9 WYO). You also selected a picture of me in the same frame, walking towards the camera! 9 WYO has just...

Re: Car head lining
I have purchased the correct material from Woolies and fitted it a few times. You need a little box of single edge razor blades. They are extremely useful for many jobs. I have never bought a "kit". You need clean hands. The "secret" is to chalk the center line on the material and also onto the roof...

Tadek, I meant the nut and washer that I can see screwed onto the stabilizer, above the gearbox and directly behind the engine.

Re: Am I ready to fit the engine in??
Looking good, just a couple of things I would check. Most important one, have you the correct clutch release bearing. The clutch release arm looks a bit close to the bellhousing casting, wonder if you have the "low" carbon bearing? (I have found this problem the hard way (having to take it all out a...

Re: Cyl head repair
I doesn't look that bad to me. I sent pictures of this head (below) to a company who do nothing but heads for the trade a few years ago as I had doubts. It shows obvious erosion in the alloy around the valve seat. They came back and said on the XK engine the seats are quite deep and it would be OK. ...
