What’s in the box?

by on Jan.21, 2010, under Build

Today, while I was at work, a box was delivered.

What's in the box?

What's in the box?

But what could be in such a large, heavy box?

Oh, it's an engine!

Oh, it's an engine!

Yes, of course.  It’s an engine.  Let’s just say that time is a little shorter than I’d like.  In fact, obviously, a lot shorter than I’d like.  Particularly given the medical issues, and the fact that the epidural I had on Wednesday doesn’t seem to have done much other than cost me a day’s wages. However, that aside, getting another engine rather than messing about for ages with the other one seemed the expedient thing to do, and one turned up; hopefully it’ll turn out to be a good’un, only time will tell!

Problem is that it needs to go into the car.  The jury’s out on when this will happen, due to various issues, so it could be that it will be too little, too late as aside from just putting the engine in, it would also need to be mapped, a few other things done on the car, and then getting it MOTd.  And time is very short.  So, we’ll see, but I’m guessing this could be yet another thing that I’ll be missing out on.
