A few things to think about

So now my engine is running, and water tight I have a few things to consider, so I’m fishing for ideas to come up with the best solutions.

I have a plastic tank at the rear but a RC 200tdi chassis, how would you fix the fuel pipes in place? (Is there any law regarding its placement)

I’ve read an interesting thread about using a TD5 bulkhead on a 200tdi, which has given me the confidence to use parts such as the TD5 pedal box and the master cylinder and the heater matrix, which is where I’m going to start today (ordering gaskets etc).

But if there is anything else you would sort out before putting the wings on to make life easier, I’d appreciate any advice!
Many thanks.

wings are the last things fitted

Not sure what your asking but fuel pipes fit into clips inserted into holes along the top of the offside chassis rail.

Yeah the problem I have is, the 200tdi fuel tank would be on the O/S side and the fuel tank I’m using is in the rear, I don’t think RC considered all of the complications of adding the rear fuel tank to the chassis, so now I need to find the best way of securing it without drilling into the chassis.

You know them stick on flat backed things that you can use zip ties with? Could use them but with a better adhesive like gripfill?

Like your thinking, definitely food for thought
