Oily mess !@#$

In my infinite wisdom I tried to fill the gearbox with oil without checking for any possible hole first. So of course oil started pouring out of the speedo hole.



Last night on Brad's recommendation I blocked it up with a nylon plug, a washer, a circlip and plenty of silicon.

Then the real fun started and we went about putting the engine in. Unfortunately we ran out of time and at 12:30 last night this is as far as we had got.



The gear box is too far forward to get the clutch cover past the bell housing, so we need to take the prop out and temporarily move the gearbox back a tad to get the engine home.
