Normal
Managed to pick up a whole megane engine, complete with turbo gearbox all ancillaries etc for an absolute bargain. Also came with suspension and subframe, don’t need any of it so should be able to sell some to recoup some funds.Plan is to strip that down and choose between one of the blocks and build it back up with all the fresh parts I’ve got now. Had an absolute nightmare taking the head off this evening though. Three of the heads on the head bolts snapped so had to drill them out!!Anyway eventually got the head off. Waiting on another engine stand to arrive as the other one has a van engine on it at the moment (sigh) should be able to build it up this weekend if all goes to plan (it probably won’t knowing my luck!!)
