Who'd have thought an engine would weigh 450 kilos?!

here some crappy phone pics of what it now looks like

should go better now that you got rid all that weight in the front hey? lol

Just need to jack the back up 3 ft now, hi lift kit.

the front looks factory hahaha.
that is what my ute looked like when i had no motor in it.
what plans have you got for it?

Classic.
Sure that thing doesnt have ricer airbag suspension ?

Lol, no cant even bounce the front to make a quick pimp video, doh! the springs are sooo damn tough.

Got a friend building the new engine, well more like freshening up the old one and adding my new cam, rings, heads, intake, carb etc etc etc. It used to make 136 rwkw's and Ive been told that it was f**k!! when they opened it up the were laughing their asses off at some of the broken gear still in there, they cant believe that it still ran, so hopefully, with the new go fast bits and it being build properly it'll do better than 136 next time. Plus im taking the oportunity to move the battery, fit twin thermos, new balancer, new clutch and if time permits repaint the bay.

yeah i reckon you paint the engine bay, it makes it so much easier with the motor out.
