I believe they retain the crank shaft, so if you are converting to 2.2 L then you will need to remove them.

More interested in splitting the block and crankcase At the moment Is it just a case of giving it a goods prising open Or do the black crank retainers need moving to split block and crankcase

Some other pics

[vocky]

you need to remove twenty of the bolts with a 15mm head and ten of the 13mm head bolts

 

Basically all the bolts visible when the engine is upside down 

 

Then use a large screwdriver or small crowbar and lever off the lower crank carrier

I agree Vocky certainly knows his stuff. How far are you along now before if goes back in? What's your plans for flywheel and clutch?

[CHILL Gone DUTCH]

Need a lightened flywheel, and cams which I'm getting from ZZP hopefully in the Black Friday sale Picking up a 6 paddle clutch tomorrow morning Then need to do the timing and engine is back together Need to sort extra plug near water pipe

[Wreelybro]

Thinking of getting a TTV from Courtenay with new clutch and slave then ready to install. Just need to rob a bank to pay for it all.
