Ok... I've been working away, taking bits and bobs off my old engine etc.

So far I've taken off :

UIM
LIM
Air Pump
Turbos
Oil Filler neck
Coil Packs

I think that's it.

Anyway, here's some pictures of my progess so far.....

My old engine....








Here's the new block...

(I know the oil filler neck shouldn't be on just now, but I just put it there to keep it out of the way)









I'm now wondering what's next??

I was thinking possibly it's time to take off the alternator etc on the front of the old block? Or is it time to tackle the rats nest??

If it's time to take the rats nest off, how do you go about removing it? I had a quick look and I could only see 3 screw I think ontop? (or am I looking in the wrong place?).


Any help much appreciated!! One thing I am worried about is where all those hoses go!! ... lol
