Engine Install
The rebuild engine was hung on 18 March 2026. It is a fussy process with many facets needing to be aligned precisely. Hard to believe it can be done with two men and an engine hoist but it got completed. The engine is entirely rebuild. We were able to salvage the crankshaft, two cylinders, the oil pan, and the sparkplugs. Everything else is new. Now starts the fussy process of ensuring that everying else is installed and made correct. No point in installing a zero time engine but allowing the sixty years of accumulated maintenance compromises to remain intact.
