Aidan it is not that heavy matey i can lift it around and i am a weed weighing in at 11.5 stone...... even the main block was not that heavy Martyn and I lifted mine into the trailer which i was shocked at.... the only other thing which i want to do for the box is to put a large magnet onto the sump plug....straight cut gears tend to leave a healthy amount of swarf in the oil.......well that has been my findings on race box's anyhoo.

once i have got the block linebored and the crank done it will be built up again. My holley carb is totally screwed so another will have to be sought out.......unless i go downdraft 45 DCOE with a blower......hmmmm tee hee.
