Hi Kev,

Cheers, Rpb

Hi Rob. My lad took an old one with him to the Newark auto jumble and they made a pair there, quite a good copy as they recreated the Mountview motors logo etc. Not sure what the company name is, I'll ask my lad when I see him next.  |

Thanks Kev, My number plates need replacing & I'd like to have them just like the originals (with little Lancia shields at the bottom)  |

Time marches on and I still need to update this thread..
With the engine and gearbox reunited the engine bay got prepped ready to accept it all.
The steering rack had already gone in of course, the brake servo went in with a new master cylinder. The gearbox support bracket got sand blasted and fitted with a new poly bush.
The wiring was loosley put where it needs to be, cables etc likewise.

Quite a jumbled mess really....
Heater box had been trial fitted so I knew what went where, drain tubes fitted.

I'd made some little wheels on brackets so I could slide the whole assembly under the car without it resting on the sump, this meant the car had to be raised pretty high as I don't have a lift at my unit. Just enough room is enough room, about half an inch clearance |

I took my time to lift it all into place, leaving the turbo and exhaust manifold off helped with working space to lift it all up through the engine bay.
The car was lowered down a little then the assembly lifted up using my engine crane and trolley jacks for support and alignment.

Looks a lot of room from this angle, but there was very minimal clearance when it came up whilst trying to avoid hitting the cross-member

The repair brace I made up for the broken gearbox mounting lug thankfully has enough clearance around where I'd repaired the chassis rail...

Still time consuming to find parts you forgot you needed, like the plates for the gearbox mount. Did eventually find them of course so cleaned and painted, not for vanity but more for future protection.

I can see why it's a PITA job to do the water pump with the engine in situ!

Exhaust manifold and turbo went on, much easier without any radiators there, how the rally crews did it on a hot rally engine I'll never know.

You can see from this angle how it would have gotten in the way with raising the engine into the engine bay.
