so....

what fell out the box....

decided to drop the motor to make life easier for getting the box off, clutch off and fitting the new manifold as they're a pain in the bottom in situe.
3 hours later inc pizza break

Clutch had seen better days...

New sachs single flywheel conversion ordered, box should be going for refurb today too.
Bay will be getting a tidy up whilst we're at it and some pipes and wires neatening up.
Thanks to Batman so far

More to come....
