I dunno what it drives like, motor isnt in the car yet....... and it still sits hard on the bump stops, i put them back in coz i got sick of hearing the diff hit the body and making a massive bang.......... so now im "hoping" it will have made it quite when i go ova bumps and ####

sorry, stupid me haha. yeh i have superlows in the rear of mine with no inslutors and have never had a prblem with the diff hitting the tray. If you would like to swap springs let me no hahah

Today i got the motor and box in, after so much #### assing around with flywheels and clutches to fit each other and the motor............ Night Mare but its done now. Surprisingly every thing went very well no dramas that set me back, gearbox slid on 1st go with the help of my wife sharp eye lining up the input shaft, managed to get the clutch Lined up in the centre with out using a clutch alignment tool, motor went in with out getting stuck on things and lined up in the right spot perfectly, the wife and I have the motor and box sitting in the car in 20 Min's, not too bad I think.

Next will be the rest of the motor, mounting cooler, exhaust, gotta get a few more fittings for hoses, but its getting there now.

And this is how she sit's.............
