New lease of life

So the engine swap took 4 days and lots of swearing, bruising and skinned knuckles. It's not something that I'd relish doing again!
The positive side is that my van has a new lease of life and it started up first time after at least a million cables and pipes had been disconnected and reconnected with only my memory to guide the reinstallation.
Apparently it will take 6 weeks for my oil stained skin to replace itself and I can look like a normal human being again!

Thanks to Gary who helped a lot and P.J. Autos in Byfleet, who lent me the engine hoist and some tools and even offered to lend me a car while mine was out of action.
