Well that didn't go quite as planned, managed to get it in the engine bay. Split the hardpipe that goes to the flexy power steering pipe. I've also only just noticed that the engine mounts are perished.. as the just split away from the outside of the mount when I tried to to put the engine on them *sigh*, I'll be ordering some poly ones then. Its never easy with these cars is it? At this rate it'll be running in the week, still need to get some aluminum blocks for the brake brackets too.

Engine on hoist ready to go in:

Lifting the car up, ready to slide the engine under

Last moments of being outside the car

Finally in the engine bay, woo!!
