Here are some pictures from the install process back a couple weeks. Sorry it took a while to get the pictures up. Engine Install Phase 1 Thanks again to all that attended. I hope I wasn't too much of a job pusher and I think everyone had a good time. Was the goal accomplished? not 100%. Does that really matter? no. We got a lot of work done I couldn't have done myself and I appreciate it. Thanks to Chris for taking the camera and getting some shots while I was preoccupied.
