Tom, if you bag every fastener you remove and put them in a tray in the order you removed them is basically impossible to mess up.
You don't even have to build the short motor. Just bolt the heads up and chuck the timing belt on.
Then just the ancillaries go back the same as they come off.

I'd do it for you but am just too busy at the mo.

Frayz if you chuck the timing belt on will it tension itself correctly aswell as time itself. If so I must try chucking it on next time I have to do one.

Tom like Frayz said bag each nut/bolt up and put with the part that they came from and just write on the bag to be double sure, there is'nt that many nuts and bolts and it is pretty self explanetery(sp) tbh

Go on you know you want to
