Mo Moto Part Deux
Getting closer.. The motor is about done after this weekend.
The Done list: Intake and Webers hung; new water hoses and new thermostat plumbed; alternator attached; motor mounts done; dipstick attached; distributor gaskets replaced, intake and exhaust studs removed and replaced. And a bunch of hardware electroplated as usual.
Short ToDo List: Wait for the big washer that the crank pulley locks down to show up in the mail after I lost the original, and torque down the crank and main pulley. Insert the distributor hopefully close to a position that will allow the motor to start - need to do some more reading and thinking before doing that. Repaint the valve cover, and mating the tranny to the motor - that will wait until I'm about ready to stuff it back in. Now I just need the car back. It's scheduled to hit the paint booth any day now. I can't wait.
