Engine arrived on a pallet early saturday (so early that I was still in bed by the time it was in the garage)










Nice and clean, plus it came with alot of ancillaries













Disconnected all the sensors and piping
















Got stoppped by a rain shower















Had to disconnect the hub from the suspention, tracking arm and frame
















This allowed the drive shaft to be removed from the gearbox
















Slowly lifting the engine we made sure everything was clear
















After a slow lift we managed to get the engine out (radiator still in place)
















The empty space under my bonnet
















Drive shaft with no gearbox
















Engine hanging on the crane
















After alot of work we were able to split the gearbox and the engine. Turned out the clutch release arm had to be removed.
















Ordered a new clutch so will complete the job when that arrives
















Left the car in place untill the clutch can be fitted
















Veiw from under the bonnet
















Something missing?
