Talking Motor is out

Thanks to Dave C.
We pulled the motor out of the car today, (no room) that thing is in tight!
The heads are coming off and re-seal time
But the job was not to bad. Thinking cams
Hoping to be running super by spring time, it will.

I can't read Greg's (blown87) post as my eyes tend to want to go to the left.

Motor's going in tomorrow.

Default Motor is in

Reverse birth done. Getting the damn umbilical back into the birth canal is not easy. I think Greg learned some new phrases this morning. But, it's in.

Nope. That's the only fuel line that is still original as it is still in very good condition.

We'll see. The proof is in the pudding. Now, to hook everything back up.
