Lates can do it under 2 hours in situ. They have got it off to a fine art.

I've pulled out a MGB engine/gearbox to do the clutch, but that was a doddle compared to the V6, I thought it looked like a heart in your photo, with all the pipes and things dangling down. Still that is what it is I suppose.

Respect, to you and your dad for having a go, I,m sure it will all go back, with all the new bits on and go better and faster.

After this at least you can say you have done the work yourself and know how it all works. Keep the photos coming.

Are you dressed all smart like the guy in the video.
