Well, on my 2nd post I said I wanted to see it running on the 22nd, and with all of the changes that have been done since then and now, there is no way in hell it will be ready any time near the 22nd.

I bet I could get the engine running in a couple of weeks, but I am sure that it will not be drive-able until Round-Up's eve.

I have been hammered with work now, on Monday when I got back, I nearly had no idea where to even begin. So I've spent the first couple days of my return week just figuring out simple things and getting things back to where I was.

Obviously I've been very busy on Marlin's truck and Bevin's truck, so hence I've not even been online here for the past 12 days.

I'll just post up a couple quick pics as I still need to continue working on Marlin's harness right now (yes, at my house and at 11:40pm)..

I left my camera at home on Tuesday, so I've only got a couple pics from Monday and Today..

The 2nd pic show's help from co-worker Alex.
The 3rd pic is where I got it aligned, with 4" of fan clearance, 1/4" more than my setup. I got the engine seated right up on the firewall.

Engine mount plates were made by Andy and I put then inplace and partially welded them into place. Then I pulled the engine and Andy finished welded them and braced the bottoms. I left the shop while he was still working, so I will get the final pictures tomorrow..
