A few more updates. It's been an eventful week.
On Wednesday, I stripped the Volvo down and we removed the engine from that.
On thursday, we spend all day stripping down the LT, to get the engine out.
That was no easy task at all.
We had to strip all propshafts, the transferbox and the gearbox first.
Bring the engine crane into the cab
Then lift the van up on the 2-poster, while we were maneuvering the engine downwards and behind the front axle. With some kicking and a lot of swearing, we finally had the engine out.
Here are the two engines on the ground, side by side.
Today we started moving parts, that we needed from the LT engine to the Volvo engine. Because the injector-pump of the Volvo has a problem, we couldn't test-fire the engine, before it came out. So this was done on the garage floor today, when we had the LT injector pump mounted.

It was a glorious moment.
On monday, we should be able to finish the work on the Volvo engine and then stick it into the LT.
