c20xe removal from my old car







engine out after around an hour and half



we then put it all in the back of andys corsa


then headed over to andys middle of nowhere lol and up a hellish dirt road lol
so engine out car and block and gearbox painted up black while i got to work on the 16xe
rained most of the day with some dry spells lol but we kept at it






a local tractor we borrowed from a nearby farm lol our make shift engine lift drivin by birdo

c20xe going in




after that car was started not long after midnight started straight up turned it off fitted up exhaust system and called it a night the next day ie sunday was a case of getting bumper etc on lights on adjust gear linkage pics to follow
