Yeah, that lol.
So yeah, dropped it all in last night, happy with the install i think, pretty much everything in there apart from the exhaust, can't wait to see how she goes.

Not really, and it just got a bit further away again, i forgot to mention this yesterday: Within 24 hours of pulling the engine out of mine - thereby immobilising the car and blocking up access to my drive/garage/tools/electrical supply - the release bearing on the 205 died a horrible death. I can't fix it at home and we're flat out at work until Friday, so yeah, thank f*ck i bought the 106 when i did lol.
Having gone from 3 cars to 1 in such a short time is amazingly motivating, spent an hour last night stripping the original block down, just on my way back out to finish the job. First though, those pics i promised...
This is what i found under the big end bearing shells, i don't know if you can really see the blued metal and scoring, but i'm glad they're being replaced. :S :
