Tony at PAW is a spot on chap and ran a Maestro turbo himself. I have one of his kits on my car although I'm using Wilwood calipers. I don't run the heat shield either. As for the outer CV boots then i use Rover 220 items with a part number of ZUA000900. You might find the ones you have slip off. All coming along nicely bit by bit.

I'm a, T16 Turbo conversion guy owned the O series turbo cars too thirsty and not fast enough too justified the swap when T16 was readily available 15 years ago when was converting them! Van in my profile pic here still lives up Scotland and my brother owns turbo no 361! I do intend on doing a Montego T16 once I'm fit from my injuries as only one have not done turbo from the 3 M range of Austin Rover! Triple M range especially base models are the ultimate wolf in sheep suit!

Hi Guys good luck with your resto! Not sure why I came across this but in the mid 90's I took the body off a rusty S1 and fitted it to a 5.0L Chimera chassis with engine/gearbox etc. It didnt take that much work to make it fit other than narrowing that perimeter frame by about 40mm and chopping the entire fibreglass transmission tunnel out and making a wider one to clear the Chimera chassis. The registration number was B15HLT if you ever see it.
