yeah it took an almighty tug to get them out, i struggled most with the bolt underneath the top mount which goes in to the side, but managed to rig up a home made tool with the use of some old sockets which made it a lot easier to do

yep. 6 hours mate.
only proper tool i used was the one to lock the cams.
good 'ol block of wood and trolly jack under the sump to support the engine, then dropped it down a little to get access to the aux belt too.
never again. lol

once i had mastered it, it took a few hours, most of the time was spent on stripping everything off and the rebuilding!
this was my 3rd attempt tho lol, there is a bolt which goes into the side of the inlet manifold from underneath the top mount which was really hard to get at and was on really tight so i had to modify a socket and use a steel rod to get enough leverage to get it off, it was an absolute ballache but well worth it in the end
hope the silver best is going well james? any new wheel/engine colour changes?
