Are you putting it in through top or bottom if top it wont go down with the headers and alternator fitted .

Probably bottom tbh. I've got a 2-tonne engine crane on the way so that will comfortably lift the car up in the air.

Finally figured out how to get the driveshafts off today
Means I'll hopefully have the engine out this week!

The eagle has landed!
Bit of a faff, kept getting wedged on the way down. But I've finally removed my first ever engine!
Just need to jack the car higher now....

Could someone please clarify something for me?
Do I need to swap out my tubby fuel pump? If so, is it one of the Walbro 255/lh jobbies I need to get?
Thanks!

Hmmm, run into a potential problem?
I thought (rightly or wrongly) we had to reuse the driveshaft support bracket from our tubby engine. Only thing is, mine doesn't fit!

It won't bolt to either of them. Thoughts?

Bollocks, now I'm fucked. Not a bloody clue who, what or how to get over this! I assume your engine came with the bracket then?

Need to check because I was planning on doing the same thing!?
I've got a tubby box with the shafts and support bracket.

Lol, was gonna send you a PM about this Chris, we're likely both in the same boat, unless you've got a bracket already attached.
My first thought is USA Ebay! Or maybe Gouky if he's got any kicking about? (You never know!)
