THE NEW ENGINE IS IN OUR SHOP

It has been a few days since my last post.  I had to take a road trip to pick up the newly rebuilt engine.  There were a few delays in the rebuilding process mostly related to parts availability and delivery.  All the parts were received at the end of last week and the engine was assembled yesterday.  
The cylinder walls were damaged so it was necessary to bore the engine .030 over.  This was the only variation from the stock specification.  We will be attaching the engine to the stand tomorrow so that the assembly process can be completed.  
Look for photos on tomorrow's post.

Later,
Tom McCurry
