Hi Marty,

Yeah it was Simples one none interference 1108cc Fire Engine removed,

I got the exhaust manifold and cat took off this morning then the engine,box,alternator,starter,spi unit,intake,manifold,coil packs out as a whole unit this afternoon by just dropping it all down on the jack and pulling it out then i split it all down,

I hope to get it all cleaned up over the next few days then i can think about splitting the engine







Cheers Scuderia

Cheers Marty,

I got the engine bay all clean up today which took hours as i was being a little James May about it anal

I replace the corrugated loom covering in places and removed all the old water proofing tape and re-taped it all,its looking much better and looking more like it once was,

Never took any pic's today but i will update the thread as and when i get some more work done,

Cheers Scuderia
