The engines have finally made it back to my garage. That sheared bolt mentioned in the last blog post proved to be quite a nuisance. There must have been considerable corrosion around the bolt (so shearing was probably inevitable) a hammer and pry bar could not separate the transmission from the engine even though it was only an unthreaded portion of the bolt attaching the two. So eventually I had to resort to cutting the bell housing around the bolt to remove it. That's madness.

Anyway after that we simply loaded our engines on Lloyd's trailer and headed to my garage.

Project cost: $1565.00.

You need to start factoring in mileage costs :)
That wouldn't help the justification process much :-)
