Damn i look good :lol:

Was quite an eay day to be honest apart from the driveshaft problem but sorted it in the end.

Now the fun begins, got the engine back at mine, stripped down ready for its rebuild. Should be done by next weekend, hopefully. Not got time to do much else now though as its the europe trip this weekend. Will be intouch next week scott :wink:

Will be hopefully putting the engine in the car in may along with a full HH strengthening kit, engine bay respray and engine fitting.

Hopefully the conversion should go smoothly, and dont worry scott, the final job will be as if its our own :wink:
