How come you took the whole engine out? Looks like it's just the sump that's cracked

So picked up all the items i had sent to the powder coaters! Gone for a red and black theme.





Replacing the cloth bulk head the stupid Meganes have with heat shielding.

All the bottom end has been balanced so need to collect that and start work on the engine at the weekend.

Waiting on parts which is now slowing me down.

ARP Headbolt kit
Renault Timing tools
Rocker Cover bolts

So once all that is here i can finish the build and put it back together!!

Yea cage is still red. Red and black go with pretty much any colour if i decided to get it re-wrapped at any point too.
