Removed the slam panel rad and bumper and lowered the gearbox down, then rotated the whole lot anti clockwise and raised it just enough that it all cleared the cross member. Finally pull out forward.

Only thing was I fitted it at the same time as my supercharger so I don't know how much difference it actually made on it's own. What I can tell you is one of them definitely made it faster....
