I thought i might aswell update this thread too... I tried to fit the engine at the weekend and it didnt go to plan. The new engine had the wrong dizzy so (as i decided to check the parts for the new engine when the old one was out) the old one had to go back in. It went in fine, but there seems to be a vacuum leak, probably because the IM gasket crumbled away so i had to use instant gasket sealer paste. This video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CutLRTSJMeA shows it I think?
also, there was a puddle under the exhaust after running it and topping up the rad for a while... I really hope its not the head gasket. There was alot of whiote smoke at one point, I overfilled the tranny slightly so I think it was that as its stopped yesterday.

Any update on how the engine is going?
Got the proper dizzy?
Have you tried trents [or any scrappy] to get the dizzy? just so you can get it working for the time being?
What did you do about the whistle?
