i saw them, at that price it will be silly not to use one, started prepping the jimny engine for removal, just the fuel lines, gearbox bolts and engine mounts to remove then it will be coming out, will wait till the 16v block arrives so i can clean it before adding parts.

thanks again dave, hope fully this weekend i will be pulling the jimny engine and swapping everything over, i think i have everything i need other than the mount but i will fabricate something the weekend when i dry fit the block back in, i am hoping that the sump will clear with the 1.5 inch lift.

looks good, i was looking at adapting the mounting holes on the chassis but looking at yours i may try your way, i will wait till i dry fit the 1.6 block (bolt to gearbox but leave block hanging from engine hoist) to gauge what needs doing

just took the head of the jimny, not as straight forward as i thought it would be, didnt realise that one half of the head bolts are under the camshaft, so had to take the camshaft out, im thinking while it is out i will take my file and re shape the lobes to give more torque :whistle:

that is a joke
