what a good day we have had, started off this morning fitting the new engine mounts
and fitting the cross member into the car. my brother came round and we got the engine out of
pablo's kitchen to out side onto the trolley, fitted the flywheel and clutch and wheeled it out
the front ready to be lifted, once up in the air got the front diff fitted onto the sump.
after alot of cursing and swearing (sounding like a bad porno) we finaly got it
lined up and back onto the gearbox wahoo :-D
cross member in but had to take back out to get engine in
fitting diff onto sump
it will bloody go in :lol:
bolting back up the cross member and releasing the straps
engine now in
half way thru it started snowing and that wasnt going to stop so the gazibo came out
time to take it down and have water falling on us.

I'm not sure if it shows our level of commitment or our need to be commited :lol: .
But at least it's back in, there's still so much to do and lot's of things to buy. Next stage will be to build up the top half of the engine, fit all pipes, power steering, radiator, intercooler and soon the list goes. Should have it all done in the next 2 weeks.
Still have to get front end poly bushes, new adjustable electric fan controller and a few other bits

Priceless guys. Good work. Really hope it all pays off for you this year, you deserve it.
