Decided to do a full C service recently, thought you all might like to have a looksee at the engine out the car. Spent alot of time cleaning it too before putting it back in (lowered it into the T100 and off to the powerwash!). We did all the belts, gaskets, and seals, as kind of a prevent maintenance thing. Everything went smooth. A few shots: ![http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g156/91MR2_photos/Lotus-Engine3.jpg](http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g156/91MR2_photos/Lotus-Engine3.jpg) ![http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g156/91MR2_photos/Lotus-Engine2.jpg](http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g156/91MR2_photos/Lotus-Engine2.jpg) ![http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g156/91MR2_photos/Lotus-Engine1.jpg](http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g156/91MR2_photos/Lotus-Engine1.jpg) ---

Turbo may get upgraded next year, as suprisingly it actually IS quite accessable. And, I didn’t take any of me in the engine bay, sorry guys. ---
