Yes mate. Looks pretty good in daylight but dark in the garage and a world of a difference to what was on it

Question guys. My torque converter to flywheel coupling points are 3 inches away from another. Didn't think it would matter as thought I could spoke it around to marry them up but nothing working. Am I going to have to split the engine and gearbox to sort this?

Is it possible to split engine and gearbox enough in situe to rotate flywheel to match torque converter?

Would it be easier to lift the whole lot out again instead of trying to mess about under the chassis?
