In which case dont fit the followers from the other engine, you will need to clean the ones from the second hand engine if your going to that level fo work........and as you know the cambelt layout might be different with a different tensioner back plate (its on the change over at that age).

I guess its metal oil filter and not cartridge.

Old engine will be canabalised as much as I need WITHOUT MAKING A MESS and then scrapped. So, I will have a spare EGR valve, aircon compressor (that makes 3 I have), alternator, rocker covers, DIS pack (Dave still owes me one), and all the other little bits from the engine like the hydraulic tappets and cams.  I will reuse the cambelt kit from the old engine again as it is brand new. Also the water punmp. I will change both manifold gaskets whilst the engine is off the car too.

Will the rear mult-ram actuator be going spare? I just need the electrical part to replace a broken one on mine -- it's  a solenoid with a two pin connector on one end and the vacuum connection on the other end, held on by two torx bolts IIRC.

Cheers.
