I may well give that a go.

Dont worry I'm keeping it, just a little frustrated at it.

Hmm, I'm getting it up on some ramp Friday, I have the day off work so it will arrive warm, and I'll take it from there, if the block is cracked then I'm going to get a good engine fitted as I want to keep the car....
