Congrats Steve I bet you still can't get that smile off your face. You are like the monkey that got his tail caught in the meat grinder it won't be long now. Keep up the good work.

The engine is now in its proper place in the engine bay. When I started her she was sitting beside the bus. Over the weekend I pulled the bus forward with the motor home and winched the engine behind her. Then jacked her up and supported it with stacks of blocking. I then let the bus roll back over it and winched it into the bus. There was some brute force involved but she's in there now and I need a day of recovery...... ;) Then ill get busy buttoning things up. May have her ready to fire off again by the end of the month.


Thanks

Kentucky Steve
