Engine is back!

The engine has been rebuilt ;-) The cams are in and timed, the front cover is back on, the harmonic is on, the water rail installed, and various other bits bolted on ;-) I now need to create a few blanking plates to block off part of the air system (EGR), and get a few fittings to block off some of the water system (heater). Then we can drop it onto the floor and fit the bell housing and gearbox.

Thanks to Mike for his efforts on this.....

This basically means that I have about two weeks effort to complete the build, I reckon. It should all move pretty quickly from here. Having said that, there's probably a thousand and one things I don't know about that will get in the way ;-)

HOORAH! 2 weeks is a tall order though! B
