Hi Toby
Enjoyed the pictures of the engine pull-

".....It's great to hear that the radiator damage is not too bad, and indeed easy to fix. I was a bit worried for a minute there!
The big news, however, is that we have finally found time to remove the old engine! Myself and my dad set up the tripod yesterday and attached an endless chain to the already disconnected engine, and pulled it out. It was easier than i thought it'd be, to be honest!....."

The hard part is getting it back in. Take a look at the time lapse of pulling and installing engine on my C60S

I'll try and post some pictures of the simple tools I've rigged up to do this job with one person. Your lucky to have two good men, there are some pictures and drawings of how this was done in the field drifting around I'll try and find them and post them. Your tripod approach is the basis of good sound field repair.
Cheers Phil
