    well it was d day and i dragged it work and removed the sump ready to install my new bits





    then before fitting i removed the very end caps and well picture says a thousand words




    so ive decided to pull the engine this week and do a few jobs to it while im there and tidy a few of the conversion bits up and make it a bit tidier

    and to make myself happier i was flicking threw ebay and brought this


    not sure how im gonna get it to fit yet buy will be fun when i come round to it

    i desided to make my slam panel unboltable so out cam the air saw and cut it off ha ha
    going to fabricate up some brackets and weld them in to weld nuts in



    then carried on removing the engine







    not sure what they where doing here looks like they took the grinder to it


    next steps will be strip engine apart sort all that then start sorting out all the bits on the shell will update more when ive done more ha ha
