Guest Eggsy Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 Right, as some of us well know I had a bit of a set back a little while ago, but glad to add I'm now back on track & my engine is more or less ready to go in (thanks for the help sat Paul) Oh yeh & ignore the crushed oil filter - was a pain to get of to fit the oil cooler sandwich plate, but has just been put back on for the time being!! If you have a look @ the scabby looking gearbox behind the engine, that is what my gearbox used to look like, have become a bit of a dab hand @ polished & may offer the service when I've finished my car & have time on my hands!! :happy001: Below are some more pics from various angles (please ingnore the greasy finger marks on the crossover pipe!! pmsl) Well don't know what you's lot think but - I'm more than happy with it!!
