Well the engines finally outta the cav, kinda decided at 6pm that it would be a good idea to remove the rest of the engine even tho i dont have a crane. all i had was a lever bar two bits of rope and my dad.

mums happy now as the cav can be taken away and made into a small cube, and i can get on with stripping the engine down ready to take to ken riley in wycombe next weekend for the re-bore and and head work..

yey 2.1 turbo corsa here i come

Yeah, I didn't use a crane, just a big mother of a jack from a mechanic friend.
