been doing some more work today..... ENGINES OUT!!!!



had a look around the bay to check everything is on, only one thing found at mo, the hole where the top bolt for the enigne mount is a little bigger than it should be that would be why the engine moved so much!!! but no worries ill just get a plate welded over it.




got the engine home, and in to shed, which was fun, and a totally diffrent story!

Started to stip it down to check pistons and head, all seams good. Can still see cross hatching on barrels.

We did notice that the headgasket was on its way out tho, but more down to it being old than it failling,

head is really clean. so i'm really happy.






Should be ordering the wiring loom for new ecu and then throttle bodies!!! yes thats right more than 1!!! going to be running throttle bodies, dont worry its still going to be turboed.
