Always disconnect negative side of the battery as it just depends on where the alternator rotor has stopped you may be unlucky and it will damage the rectifyer if in the wrong place.

watch out when removing and fitting the electrical conecting plugs as you can easily bend the conectors or push the socket into the gearbox (especially if the plastic on the socket as gone fragile)

going to try and see if they fit as being multi layered steel they will act like the uprated ones you can get for k series rover engines .As driving hard for 70 miles a day means head gaskets only seam to last 12 months (running on gas as well.)
