So.... I've bust it - or it's bust itself or something.
Here's a good example of the problem:
3rd gear 3k revs. Quite noisy - clutch in = "AAARRGGHH" horrible noise. So when the clutch goes in it sounds like someone has left a socket set in my gearbox.
Any ideas ?
The clutch release bearing is noisy (changing that)
The input shaft has a bit of play too.
The flange has a bit of lash.
Pics of the removal of essensial organs:
Rads out - Ancillaries disconnected.
Front sheet metal and crossmember out (not original Marina)
Engine out... (and GF's rear)
The heart - Anyone need any RV8 / LT77 measurements while it's out ?

Inner wings are too narrow to move it up and steering rack in the way of moving it back...
