Finally got a mate round today to help lift out the old block and lift the new one into place. It wasnt as heavy as I thought once we'd got it lifted.
It feels good to finally have the new block in place so I can start building it all back up again.

Oh and as for what's missing, I reckon it's the cap off that can of WD40 :D

I should have got someone to take a picture of us lifting the old engine out. Both of us standing in the engine bay with an engine in our hands! :)
It would have looked funny if anyone had walked past.
