Thanks gents.

I could do with finding the alternator bracket though

Well, yesterday was engine fitting day. 

15230660_10157968853255226_6467189737459

 

It started off so well, then a problematic captive bolt engine mount kind of stopped things in their tracks.

Got there in the end though

Glad the people crane held out

 

Looking very good.

The people crane leaked a bit of oil.

And we ended up replacing one of the captive types for a non captive. The others spun

Just plodding along mate, this has freed up loads of space in the garage though

Today has been exhaust fitting day

 

15873359_10158145749890226_6703516718578

 

LCB in, took a little while to work out how the mount to the gearbox went, but that's all sorted.

The back box is very low, and I moved that brake pipe which is no longer in the clip GRRRR

Part way through trying to get it right

The back box is where it is meant to be, but the tail pipes need shortened. It looks like a Wheel barrow.

 

Still, I can sort that
