finally got the bitch in!
the converter had slipped foward so out came the engine, repositioned the converter onto the spline and put some rape tape on it to hold it in position.
dropped the engine back in and bolted all the underside parts into position...starter, stally, dustcover and lower bellhousing bolts.
bolted up the headers and top of bellhousing... have left the engine mount bolts finger tight for the moment so i can then use the chain to adjust the level of the engine, then tighten it up!
Just need to buy some spark plugs, oil and some rocker cover and shes done....and attach sensors and drop in radiator...
back to work tomorrow after 7 days off so ill be doin all the little stuff when i get home in the arvos......
This will be the last engine swap ill be doing for a long time...fkn over it!
this cars had 3 engines in the last 2.5 yrs.. it think thats enough
