also the last bolt was very! lucky to get it off without having to drill the bastid out from my attempt at getting it off before manifold removal i chewed the head up pretty well
had to drive a 1/2" hex socket onto it to get it off
oh well got to replace the dip stick tube while the manifold was off (have had the replacement for about 7 or 8 years waiting for a chance to fit it) broke it when we did the engine swap :doh:
so whiler i got me machanics head on just as well do a oild change too :rolleyes:

Took the V8 and trailer out to recover a friend who was having trouble with his diesel 90.
So satisfying to get another landie on the trailer behind the 110.:D
 
Fitted this...

...so i can now see what's happening in the boot!
Might need to rethink the wiring on it though cos the bloody thing doesn't seem to want to fire fully unless the engine is running - thinking volt drop may be too much for it, may try wiring it back to the rear seat light instead of the boot light (shorter cable run!)
 
ffs!
