    we did a test with brake cleaner inside the chassis where it wouldn't show if it reacted with the paint. all good so we set to with clean cloths and got the yellow paint much better looking. we did the chassis and crossmember too, not just the bulkhead because it was easy without the engine in there. i've added before and after pics, it's much brighter now.
    then we swung the engine and box into place and that's where we are now. it's all bolted up tight. oh, the headers fitted in with plenty of room so that saved time as well as their gaskets having a much better chance of not ever blowing.

    we're slowly working through the parts now, getting it all re-installed bit by bit. the worst bit is remembering where all the bolts etc are. it's 2 months now since it arrived and we've stripped 3 engines and built 1 so there's lots of parts here . 'you can't see the wood for the trees' is apt here, an example was 20 minutes looking for the fanbelt only to find it staring us in the face sat in one of the 'pockets' that are part of the bulkhead . it's getting there though, that's the important thing.
