cheers for you help again..

Cheers lads,

Yep a bit of editing went on.

All in all it took 2.5 hours to get the engine bolted up to the gearbox.

Now i've experienced being in between you and Ash in conversation,I bet that was 1/2 hr for the work,and 2hrs for the
Well done on the install to you all

Bloody Ash didn't turn up until after the hard work was done.

A good job done by all - well done
Just one small point though, did I notice that the serpentine belt appears to have been routed differently to normal? I think it could slip on the alternator pulley when there's a high electrical load.

Just noticed that belt as well belt should form a 'V' shape (alt - water - pas - crank - tensioner)

I remember not so long ago someone else had it like that and the car was in the for sale.. you know with the words .. carefully maintained etc..

How we chuckled..

This is how it should look..

[adam_rbts]

Doh! Although that's actually how it was before the rebuild.. never thought to check it against anyone elses.. god knows how long it's been that!

cheers all

Perhaps you should have an ebay auction for all the nuts and bolts you have left over..

Now that would be a laugh

Less weight = faster

Just took my engine and box out over the weekend..
