Has anyone modified the engine tin so you can remove the main pieces that cover the cylinders with the motor still in the car. I pulled the engine about a week a go and found a huge mouse nest on the oilcooler.

You can take the tin off with the motor still in the car, it's just a pain trying to put it all back in.

I tried taking it off a few times and the tin starts to bend. Would cutting the nuts of the main tin and brazing nuts on the back and front tin, so the main tin can just pull straight out work?
