The engine went in the car last week. Once again with the Wife helping we had the engine and trans in the hole in an hour. Definitely a fan of engine and trans bolting together before dropping it in.
It took another 4 hours to reconnect all the wiring, sensors, and fluid connections. It fired up after a little grumpiness and idled into life. After it warmed up it started to sound a bit lumpy like a rotary. It is certainly a grumpier engine.
The car has been sent off the Brenton at Fours N More for a proper run in and then a retune. I'll post up some results once they are known.
