I thought I paid 100-150 ish for mine so you must be able to get them cheaper.

Right here we go pics of the engine strip down and ill get plenty of rebuild as i go along!
This is the engine complete that i got for £350 has 43k miles on it
![[Image: IMG_0652.jpg]](http://i1197.photobucket.com/albums/aa435/jimbob150385/IMG_0652.jpg)
First to come off was the timimg belt cover and the vvti sensor
![[Image: IMG_0653.jpg]](http://i1197.photobucket.com/albums/aa435/jimbob150385/IMG_0653.jpg)
![[Image: IMG_0654.jpg]](http://i1197.photobucket.com/albums/aa435/jimbob150385/IMG_0654.jpg)
Next bit that came off what the fuel rail, injectors,fuel lines and dipstick
![[Image: IMG_0656.jpg]](http://i1197.photobucket.com/albums/aa435/jimbob150385/IMG_0656.jpg)
![[Image: IMG_0657.jpg]](http://i1197.photobucket.com/albums/aa435/jimbob150385/IMG_0657.jpg)
Next that was taken off was the inlet manifold and rocker cover
![[Image: IMG_0658.jpg]](http://i1197.photobucket.com/albums/aa435/jimbob150385/IMG_0658.jpg)
![[Image: IMG_0661.jpg]](http://i1197.photobucket.com/albums/aa435/jimbob150385/IMG_0661.jpg)
Leaving the cam shafts on show
![[Image: IMG_0659.jpg]](http://i1197.photobucket.com/albums/aa435/jimbob150385/IMG_0659.jpg)
Then the top sproket/gear taken off the the camshaft (Lock off the engine to stop turning on you) and remove the casing at the front of the engine on the head
![[Image: IMG_0662.jpg]](http://i1197.photobucket.com/albums/aa435/jimbob150385/IMG_0662.jpg)
Then undo all the bearing caps on the inlet and outlet camshafts (keep in order) and the camshaft will just lift out
![[Image: IMG_0663.jpg]](http://i1197.photobucket.com/albums/aa435/jimbob150385/IMG_0663.jpg)
next was the head bolts and i (well my dad used a 12mm spine drive) says it worked fine but in the manual it says these are 10mm bi-hex. These will be replaced ARP bolts/studs anyway
![[Image: IMG_0665.jpg]](http://i1197.photobucket.com/albums/aa435/jimbob150385/IMG_0665.jpg)
![[Image: IMG_0074.jpg]](http://i1197.photobucket.com/albums/aa435/jimbob150385/IMG_0074.jpg)
![[Image: IMG_0075.jpg]](http://i1197.photobucket.com/albums/aa435/jimbob150385/IMG_0075.jpg)
Once these are removed the head will lift off try and keep square to help ensure the shims and buckets all remain they shouldnt go anywhere any how but will be a time consuming job later on in the rebuild
![[Image: IMG_06552.jpg]](http://i1197.photobucket.com/albums/aa435/jimbob150385/IMG_06552.jpg)
![[Image: IMG_06542.jpg]](http://i1197.photobucket.com/albums/aa435/jimbob150385/IMG_06542.jpg)
![[Image: IMG_06532.jpg]](http://i1197.photobucket.com/albums/aa435/jimbob150385/IMG_06532.jpg)
When i bought this engine i was told it had sat around for 6 months in the car but when opened up all is really clean head gasket not baked on, oil still clean and when checking the bores they are smooth with no ridges or scratches so hopefully no need for honing but will wait till pistons are fully out

If I get the Walbro fuel pump they ain't no harm in fitting that now instead of when I fit the new turbo engine is there?
