West Oxfordshire: engine removal & refit suggestions

[mattjamesw]

I'm taking my engine out in April. 
SPY motorsport quoted but subsequently took on so much work they can't do it anymore. 
PGM (came recommended) and have also quoted. 
Do blatchatters have any other garages/mechanics/blatchatters that could do the task that they would recommend?

If an assembled group fancied teaching me with their equipment and experience for a donation to the clubs charity I'd be very keen to explore that?

Rover K Series, 1.8, with Apollo, Jenvey throttle bodies, big air box, S3. 
seperate issue - how do you safely transport an engine to DVA?

cheers all.

Hire or borrow an engine crane and take it out yourself. Label everything you unplug or disconnect. K series can be carried in most cars.

Have you found the Equipment Register?

And would you like a (dis)Assembly Guide?

Last time i did it on my 21, there was approx 4-5 of us doing it over a Saturday.

i borrowed an engine crane from someone.

You could organize something like this if you can find an engine crane.

I'd be up for helping out if timing/availability permits. Where in West Oxfordshire are you?

Edited to say I could even swing past Punch to collect the crane & leveller en route. Just a thought.

I'm up for for it as well
