looks like a very organised and tidy chassis swap....! If i ever did a chassis swap on my series 3, im sure it would end up in a massive mess, and i would have to buy a whole lot of new bits!!
im presuming a second hand chassis?? - or is them pics you taking the gear off the current one?

The engine gearbox assembly is a brutal lump when you lift it all together.
Just had a Richards chassis on my TD5 90, but I did not have the time or room to do it myself, nice feeling not to be sitting on all that rust.
Good luck with the project
