Apart from doing it by myself,the big problem was that the manifold to downpipe nuts wouldn't come off no matter what I tried.
In the end I unbolted the manifolds from the heads,which cost a fair amount of skin & blood.Particularily the n/s which had the sharp ends of all the brake pipes,where the ABS pump had been removed. Brake fluid in cuts don't half sting
Then had to try to remove the engine & box past the manifolds.This proved  exhausting and impossible for several hours. Eventually,I managed to remove one of the cats and manifold down under the car out of the way,and then the engine / box came out - just. Cant remember the last time I was that tired/sore/filthy from head to toe. The cuts & grazes are starting to heal now

 

Now C'mon what you got planned for it ?

Nothing  as it wrong wheel drive a V8 is out of the question  It was just a general question to get some sort of idea what these V6 lumps fetch  Seems they are becoming quite popular for coffee tables  V6 coffee tables are fetching big money

Well say i have a 2.5 or 3.0 would i need the 3.2 ecu to go with the 3.2 engine or am i talking rubbish 

[albitz]

Yes you would its a different type of ecu from the 2.5/3.0.
Also need keychip and transponder with the ECU.
