I got the engine onto a stand this afternoon so I can work on it without breaking my back.
An old 80's Habitat trolley table retrieved from the loft provided the tubes.

I don't know who has the copyright for these, but it works well.

Oil is out now, and belt covers off. Time to start cleaning it up for some fresh paint.

I am finding a plethora of elephants on the bits, and date stamps.

The block casting is October '92 but the belt covers are Feb '93. There has been some work done on it though as the front [Horizontal] cylinder head is a '94 casting?

What do youse guys recommend for keeping ****e out of the engine whilst painting and the cam, rocker and generator clutch covers are removed? News paper and masking tape?
