Yeah, thats the engine.

BAsically, you saved yourself £200 for a days work of stripping. Always the advantage of buying a car and stripping it, just extra hassle that you do need to split everything and take it apart, then sort out a delivery druck to come and take the shell away.

Oh, the suspension question, im still running -35/-40mm Chassis dynamic springs (Not higher poundage) on standard shoxs till i can afford new kit.

Still, bouncy, but it works alright for now
