After taking a week off of work and spending 4 whole days of gutting out Knightmare's BB1

My thoughts go out to Ted/Phil and Rich

how can you do this as a job

Bloody tired

if i had to play engines out all day for a living i would

all that got taken away yesterday was a bare empty rotten shell and i now have 2 whole ludes in my garage in bits

want to go back to work now for a rest

Personally I think I'd love it. Just to learn about how engines go together lol. I'm useless mechanically and wish I had half the knowledge some of the guys here have. Plus hands on work is better than a desk job any day.

Yep Kudos to 'Old Man Dbo'!

Dem boy done good.

Have some more Rep points mate; you deserve them & I know how you like them!

Was a bit of an epic, but everything came good in the end.

Learnt a lot by pulling it all apart as well. Nice.

A few pics of the before, during, & after too for good measure..

Engine comes out!

Stripped out UKDM BB1...

Dbo tries to sit on an 'unbolted' seat!

Fail.

Big Damo's JDM BB4...

Jonja's EUDM BB2 before wheel change...

And after the 'Team Dynamics' wheels fitted...

So thanks again @Dbo for being a hero, thanks to Darren for the use of his engine hoist; it would not have been possible without your help! And good to have @Big Damo and @jonja around too for an all-round entertaining week! And good to meet you last night @wurlycorner. See you at the national meet!

So yeah, got all the Gen 4 parts I need for the Gen 3 H22 manual conversion now!

And should have all the Gen 3 bits I need by the beginning of August.

Things are starting to take shape. 4 months, & we should have a Gen 3 2.2 vtec tearing up the Tarmac!
