That and the timing chain all at once! If you're going to do all those at the same time, then why not pull the engine - it'll make your life *much* easier, and you can do a whole load of other things at the same time: *Front/rear seals *Engine mounts *Clutch + master + slave *4x CV boots and a few others As you can see, once you've pulled the engine, many of these turn from being 6 hours jobs to being an extra half an hour. -- Grunff
