Yeah, it looks really good Smiley

I've been too busy with other things but finally managed to get it to this state today. Next job is to move it down to my garage where the rest of the engine is waiting for it, and fit it with the new gasket etc. Weather is stopping me right now, unfortunately, but it should change to something warmer soon.

The weather turned colder so I was unable to work, but today we're up to 8 degrees C and I got this done. I hope to do compression test and get it moved in place under the car so that I can start refitting it.

Happy new year to you all!  Grin

I got the engine re-fitted in the car yesterday - a good milestone to reach before 2024 I think Cool

I finally made some progress yesterday refitting parts on the engine. Some trivial vira and very cold weather has kept me away so it was good to get back in the garage. I got a chance to take a picture of the o2 sensor installation on the exhaust manifold, which I'm very satisfied with.
