Default It's time to put the engine in!

Nancy took the boys on vacation this week. It's interesting what you can accomplish with a few extra hours in the garage. Just need to install the new fuel lines and a gasket or two and she is ready to go back in. I'm shooting for Saturday August 11 rain date is Sunday August 12. If you are interested in lending a hand or just want to stop by for a progress report all are welcome. Send a PM for directions. Here is a link to the engine drop and an updated picture.

I'm planning on pulling out of here around 6:00, so I might be a little later than 8:00.
