How easy is it to whip the engine out of a Mk 1 Ruby? I have taken the bonnet off and radiator out and have very good all round access to the engine. I can see the 4 engine mounting points. I am happy to leave the gearbox in the car because it works fine. How is the gearbox connected to the engine? Many thanks for the help and advice.  Smile

Would suggest you take the engine out with gearbox attached. May seem a hassle at this stage but will make life simpler later on when reinstalling as you won’t have the problem of mating the dreaded splines  —which has been known to drive a good man crazy.
