        I replaced them with ARP which is overkill but I won't have to buy new ones if the engine comes apart again

        I think they are stretch bolts? either way replace them with new

                      Cheers guys, its getting there slowly, still aiming for my deadline, couple of bits still required and just getting everything sorted for it. Box wasn't too bad to fit, had some help from quattronutter and big daddy on here, rear subframe was a lot easier, probably one of the best condition subframes i've seen in a while, last bolt I was almost sure would sheer off but luckily it eased up and went in fine

                      Sorting thru all the bags of new bolts etc was a bit of a pita, luckily I still had etka to hand so used that to help out. Seems i've got a few items that i've got more than one of, gearbox mounts I know i've got two sets pita but at least its more than less.

                      Started getting ready to fit the prop, need to remove 2x nuts/bolts from the previous prop when I get the chance so I can bolt the new one on. Finish off the wiring inside, get alot of the redundant holes removed/covered over.

                      Front crossmembers going to be all made removable so engine fitting/removal is easier.

                              copied from another thread:

                              It wasn't too bad, built everything up on a trolley jack in front of the car so it was:

                              box
                              subframe
                              wishbones
                              cast arms

                              then slid it in under the car (once we'd raised the car to clear the box) and using two jacks raised it up into the car then just bolted the subframe in.

                              Then did the same with the rear:

                              bolted rear diff to the subframe and slid this under the car and jacked it up into the car and bolted it in (only one jack needed with this)
                              incase anyone has to do this, its how I found to do it and makes it ALOT easier if your able to do it this way.
