Ok i posted a few pics on the old forum and thought i would put an update in here. You can see the old pics using this link:

I have done quite alot of work since then, The engine got taken out as it was getting to cold to work on it outdoors. Any way on with the pics.
The engine out and not looking too good
My brother is going to kill me for this as he doesn't know i've stollen his spare wheel to support the gearbox, i realy hope he doesn't get a flat!
The Heads
On the stand at last, sump off
Pistons out
And the crank
Block doesn't look tooo bad
I have got more photos just haven't uploaded them yet. Since all these were taken the engine has spent a week in a parafin bath has been all cleaned up and painted, the heads have been skimmed ans the exhaust has been ported out a lil bit and the valves re-ground in, I have photos on my mobile but my Bluetooth adaptor has broken. I'm just waiting on piston rings and crank bearings now and it should be almost ready to go back together.
Any ways i hope someone reads this!
Cheers Eddie
