Engine and box finally in, but with a whole host of now apparant porblems to fix, Oil leaking out of the bock where the pressure sender snaped off- clutch no engaging- so the box has to come out again, the box also needs a new rear out put seal. Pic's as goes so far. And yes, we did actually put the 2ltr in at night in the rain, that is devotion! both Zep and I were rolling around in puddles of water with bugger all light trying to align a drive shaft.

UPDATE.

Installed a One inch master cyclinder, solved all my braking issues.

Also installed a pertronics ignition, makes a real differance, idles much smoother and its far more responsive.

Have also put on a whiteline sway bar and some better front pads.

Really happy with the way she drives at the moment.
