(update)
ENGINE IS OUT!
took about 30minutes to get the engine out, was a pain took most of the time trying to get the driver side engine mount out...will have to get all new engine mounts aswel, because they all look worn and the driver side one had a perished rubber
few pics in the process

engine out


i thought this was the perfect time to do my own INSIDE logo


the engine is going to have a complete service timing belt, altenator belt and pulley, spark plugs, leads, water pump, oil and everything ...then... get my upgraded inlet, 4-2-1 manifold and de-cat
