Pics of the Engine and Box

Image

Image

The engine had a cracked sump so he gave me another sump free, so i might paint it or clean the one he gave me up and get it acid dipped

Image

Bought the 6*9 spacers today. front main seal and a rocker cover gasket today, orderd a full hose kit and a brand new water pump i pick up next weekend, rather do every thing new then re use old parts

Image

Got bored this after noon , so i went to my favourite spot for some photos, before surgery after easter commences

Ive organised my painter to paint my engine bay next weekend in a super jet black and a few plastic bits and peaces as well,

Next wednesday is start day, as we start to pull my old 330,000km engine out and replace both the engine and auto with a 187, 000 km ones.

Ive bought new water pump and full hose kit as well as the oils, filters and gaskets,

Will take us 3 days to strip the engine bay and get it sand blasted ready for paint by saturday and sunday, then monday tuesday and wednesday wil be spent slowly putting everything back in,

Cheers Frd906 ps. any one no what i can do in terms off rerouting the hose from the back of the rocker cover to the intake, as i want to do a custom cai cheers, any ideas would be gratefull cheers
