Yesterday i got the engine installed in the car. Today, I had it towed back to my place so I can finish up all the little details; bleed the clutch, install the starter, exhaust, intake, vacuum lines, electrical, etc, etc, etc, and so on and so forth. I'll take picks tomorrow.

Change of pace. Got bored on a rainy sunday afternoon (too damp to paint the mainfolds), and went under the hood and scraped all the "flaky" foam under the hood. What a mess. I used a drop sheet over the engine bay, as I left the hood on. As crappy as it looks now, it is waaayy better than the missing chunks of foam, and finding it all over the engine bay everytime I open the hood.
