Good morning,

The base engine is complete, going to bolt up the flywheel, clutch, pressure plate, and bell housing today.
Hopefully drop it on its mounts by the end of the day. We will see. By the way; John and Mid West Military has been great; call him for a part and its in route that day. Single gaskets or seals not a problem. I paid $250 to have the crank machined, and the same for the .040 under mains and rod bearings. That was the only surprise.

I am jealous of you Bob. I need to rebuild mine but just found out we are having a baby boy! So it will probably be put on the back burner for a little bit but I will continue to work on it so I don't lose my sanity, or anymore of it.

Congradulations on the news. In a year you will have him helping do the rebuild. Two heads are better than one.
