Sorting out the engine

The engine bay looks a bit empty..... The block is on a stand in the workshop, and the head is away having the hardened valve seats fitted and a general overhaul. This IS a tall (crossflow) block. We still don't know the actual capacity.
The block and pistons look OK    Max has been tidying up and painting the block, cam covers,
sump, fan etc.. These will all be ready for refitting when the cylinder head is back in a couple of weeks. Now it's time to clean up the engine bay & start thinking about taking the dash out ready to start checking the electrics and preparing for  hose replacement, heater overhaul and more once the engine is ready to go back in.
