update for u james 
pics!
1st of all, the job was to get the dead engine out

james angry with inlet. james + hammer =

well that soon came off
and we eventually got the dead redtop out with leaving the gearbox in.....nightmare


then the other job was to take the gearbos off the new one and thats when james had a bot of a tiff with his new block....

was alot worse 5 mins later haha
so the gearbox came off


and then james had to pick his misses up from work, so the day came to a stop
and left his garage like this

hopefully tomorrow the replacement c20xe will be in mounted up and plunbed up, then its a case of loom, and gettin the coil for it 
there u go james
