update for u james

pics!

1st of all, the job was to get the dead engine out


james angry with inlet. james + hammer =


well that soon came off

and we eventually got the dead redtop out with leaving the gearbox in.....nightmare



then the other job was to take the gearbos off the new one and thats when james had a bot of a tiff with his new block....

was alot worse 5 mins later haha

so the gearbox came off



and then james had to pick his misses up from work, so the day came to a stop
and left his garage like this


hopefully tomorrow the replacement c20xe will be in mounted up and plunbed up, then its a case of loom, and gettin the coil for it

there u go james
