Default Just sharing .... The Engine is in!

My engine is finally in the engine bay! It took about 2 hours to get it in and connected it to the transimission! Then, we bolted it down to the motor mounts and the back of the bell housing.

Hopefully this week I can get the exhaust manifold, starter, radiator, carb, and lastely the fuel pump!

Fun stuff guys!

Congratulations! That is the first of the three big milestones (engine installed, first start, first drive).

w hours is good going for bolting it up.
the headers are the worst part (at least for me). I hate doing them. I've done it about 10 times on my car and I;m sick of it :-]
The rest you can nearly do while driving
