Hi Ian, I used a ruler and a sharpie to mark how the rigid sections should be oriented with respect to each other. My hydraulic hose guy had no problem using those marks.

You ask about a good machinic Shop here in Houston.....I have one that I've used over the years that I trust....They have had my Engine apart once and made t he changes I wanted done and I was happy with the work.....and also they just went through repairing the damage done by 3 Head Bolts pulling out of the Block.....This caused the destruction of the Radiator, Water Pump and the replacement of all the Water hoses as the compression got into the Water-Jacket and forced all kinds of problems! They were able to Heli-coil the New Bolts back into the Block and saved me having to buy a new short Block! So Yes! I can recommend my friend Paul @ Jaguar Sports International.....It's just a Shop! No big deal...but they get the Job done! Paul is older like me but knows a great deal about Aston Martin and Jaguar Cars! ..His Phone number is: 713/296-9505 or 713/785-1525....He might even know someone in San Antonio...
