Welcome to the club, glad to see that new members aren't afraid to get their hands dirty straight away ;)

As for ripping the sump off...I believe it's possible, you may need to drop the steering rack out though. And maybe pull the cross-member out, I can't remember exactly. When I find the info on it, I'll do a how-to for you. Keep your eyes on the how-to section of the forum, it'll appear there.

yep u can take the nuts of the mounts and then u get some big blocks of wood put them on the struts and the fender where the bolts are then u get a nice bit of steel and put that on the wood and a jack with a bit of chain and lift the front of the motor up it will only go as high as the throttle body or the wood that will give u the room u need to get the sump off? i know cos it worked for me at work
