Hi, my bottom end will be ready for collection from this friday, so..

i was wondering when i put the lump back in, is it best to put the bottom end in first and all bolted up, then put the head on then wired up, or just assemble everything together and put it in complete, i took it out complete, the car has abs to wire up, havent got time to take it out!

What ways best?

 

Have you got an engine winch? If you have you'd e better off putting it in complete.

yeah i have got a winch

 

Put it in whole then bloody kill ya back when u try an do it with out one

now i just buy the boys a mcdonalds let them put it in

 

It's not fun without a winch. Figured I've had the engine out twice so far so I'll by one and make my life easier.

Cheers

think i might do it in 2 stages, bottom end in then the head can do the head bolts up properly then

 

im doing mine in two stages just got to put the head on now and a few other bits hopefully then it will be a runner
