i took the a12 out today.I have my wicked A14 with me and ready to go into the engine bay all i have to do is rub the engine bay down, prime it and then paint it tommrow(wensday) , then the engine can be put in , but theres rain !!!!! means paint not drying!!! :(

the problems i faced today with getting the A12 out suxed the idots that put my extractors on didnt make them detachable, which meant they welded the extractors on to the exhaust so i couldnt take the engine straight out cause the extractors got in the way
we had to take starter motor off, take gearbox off, flywheel, clutch assmebly off, mech fuel pump off etc...... so the new motor would require the same thing to put in , but instead gonna cut extractors off and make a flange kinda thing which the exhaust place should have dones (that will teach me next time i will check places work more thoughly)

More work, but need to get it done hopefully it is smooth saling from here (touch wood)
