No real progress, have slowly been stripping parts from the old engine, cleaning them up and putting to one side for the time-being.
The exhaust manifold nuts on the new engine have proven to be a bugger to take off. 4 of them have welded themselves to the bolts. Ended up having to cut them off, which has left a couple bolts badly damaged.
Is there a tool for extracting old bolts?
Oh and finally for having 122k on the clock the old engine head is looking rather clean:
