Remove the radiator if it's in, drop the engine off its mounts and pull it as far forward as you can (may need the inlet manifold off as well). ________________________________________ Rich

As Rich E says take the inlet off and the lower engine mount and pull the engine back and forth, also remove the steering colume heatsheilds. Have fun doing the bolts up. Also this should be in the "paid for" technical section
