Again, a big thanks to Ross for his help with the track car, he went above and beyond. Also thanks to Kat and Dave (my mate) for pushing the car, leaving me with minimal work to do since my back still isn't 100%

Finally, I want to thank Marcus and Tracey for allowing the use of their place to keep the track car for work to be done.

Looking forward to the rebuild process and getting a proper how-to (or maybe how-not-to!) on an engine swap!

Wow, the car still looks great, hope it all goes well, only took about 4 1/2 hours to get the engine out.....................

Worse bit was the gearbox/shaft roll pin, right B to get out, plenty of WD40 as soon as you can.

Pity the trailers not got a clear central bit. You need a bit of height to get a swing at it.

I don't think it helped that the car was too low to access the roll pin - if and when I try and do another (not that I did much at Sams) that early in the process.
