Although I now have the space, I think the only use I'd have for a third LR is to sleep in as soon as it arrived home.:D

Hi Tony ;

That's basically the Crux of it :) This should keep me pre-occupied , I wanted to start on a Rover V8 just to "learn"....it doesn't really matter , Petrol or Diesel, I don't mind coming over your place and giving you a hand either , how far are you and Panda? Is it a Fair drive from pennant hills??

Thought it might be, were just out of camden at a guess about an hour out of Pennent Hills,

in spite of what people would have you belive puting a engine back togeather is fairly stright forward, the hard bit is in the measureing everything up crank, cylinders ect ect

i'll let you know when I get the bits back, the build will probley be on a saturday and back into the skid-steer on the sunday (if all goes well)
haveing a few problems finding 20tho over size crank bearings at the mo
