As i had today off work i thought i would finish fitting the last few bits to the gearbox and pop it back in the car 🙂
Fitting the bits was nice and easy. Getting the old drain plug out, not so easy and fitting the box back in the car with the engine in was a long slow progress 🙁 i knew it was not an easy job, but you forget just how hard it is with the engine in and the car on the floor 🙂
Still after about 3 hours of messing around trying to get it under the car and then into place. its now fully installed 🙂 🙂
Just a few more bolts to get and a final tighten up and then i can get the prop on and were ready to move the car forward so i can finish the exhaust and it wont be far off firing her up 🙂 I cant wait!!
