There's been another delay on this, I took the old engine out and noticed the spigot bearing for the pilot gearbox had gone! So had been running without one apparently, I think when I put the engine together the first time it was on, but then I had to take the engine out to sort the clutch arm, I think it fell off then.
So it took a few weeks to sort one out through an LDV dealer, they didn't have them in stock so there was a bit of a wait.
Clutch & fly transferred to new engine. The usual clutch allignment tool used:
Bolted to gearbox:
All back together:
So next is connecting fuel lines, starter etc and seeing if the 'new' engine is any good
