A good excuse to get the better half to let you have a new motor Mike :D
Not much chance of that Darrell, got too many of them already no room for any more, no money for what I want either.  :bad:

My tame mechanic has literally been snowed under with work, but has promised me a good deal on the labour charge.  :good:
Just hope he can fit it in soon, as we can't carry on with only one car for much longer.  ::)

He reckons it could take 3-4 hours to drop the subframe, unbolt everything that needs replacing, fit new parts etc.  :bad:
But the good news is that he will do it between jobs, so I will just pay for parts plus token labour charge.  :good:
