Great work jj, well done. Especially on your own!

That's a really light weight looking clutch it uses - surprisingly so.

I'm pretty sure it is. Mine had an asbestos warning sticker in the engine bay.

My mechanic mate was round this afternoon briefly, he has sorted out a problem bolt that went though the rear engine mount and bell housing so now the engine is ready to go back in 8-) Depending on how the weather holds out I might get it back in this weekend!

Got my crane out today

Then started to connect stuff back up again

It got dark and cold though so I went and hid inside after this.

I did a bit of degreasing too. Can actually see the engine code now, was just black slime before :lol:

Slowly getting to where I want to be though! I also went to my old work yesterday and bought some snap rings/clevis pins/spindle nuts so I should have most of the crap I need to get this back together now.
