Right then. First stage. For those that have PM'd me asking for pics of the removal of the Ti lump, I've added quite a few!

So yesterday (Monday) we had to move a few cars as the Ti was buried.

So, wasn't too confident about starting the Ti, as it had not been turned over for well over a year. With the help of a jump pack, she fired straight away. No misfire & only a slight tap for 10 secs. Well pleased! Backed the old girl on the ramp:

I'll let the the pics do the talking. Drained all fluids. Removed the driveshafts. Downpipe. Gear linkages.

Loom & ECU removed. The top end was brand new just before I got the car & is in really good nick. the bottom end seems good too, can still see the honing marks on the bores. Need to get some heavy de-greaser on the sump & the wire wheel on the block ready for paint. Will keep updating as I go.
