The seized engine has a newly rebuilt transmission done by previous owner. The good engine has a leaky transmission, which I've been topping off. The seized engine also has a new exhaust system also installed by previous owner, albeit an incorrect single pipe instead of twin pipe exhaust. Will go down and have a look today and see if its possible to drop the front end. I also suspect a broken timing chain as well, Tomguy, will look into that, should go down this afternoon and have a look.
