Motor Installed! Pics:
Well, it was a GREAT day in the garage yesterday!
Before: http://home.earthlink.net/~bbentonsp...edaybefore.JPG During: http://home.earthlink.net/~bbentonsp...actionshot.JPG After: http://home.earthlink.net/~bbentonsp...nedayafter.JPG It was super easy. The only snag I hit was the shipping pallet from Coast was too big to fit the engine hoist around. Whipped out the sawzall...problem fixed! :3DSMILE: |
That's a nice lookin' motor! I't amazing how cars can install the motors themselves these days(Where are the installers):D
|
Did it all by myself.
Work has been a little nuts so I was way, way late on getting any invites out. |
Workin' huh?
Yeah, I can see you been keeping busy.
So far tht's one nice lookin' FFR ! Hopefully we'll see it out and around soon. Great work :D |
Bill-
Pics look great! Is that your hoist, or a rental? How much are they? How many hours do you have in the project so far?? Hopefully I'll be taking pics like that in the next few years! ( 3 more years to go w/ my daughter's college education, along w/ 4 w/ my son after next year, and then I'll have some spare cash!!! ) I am so envious!! -Bob |
Borrowed the hoist from a friend.
They're about $200.00. It's usually not too hard to find someone to borrow one from, they're only used every once in a while. I haven't logged my time into the build so it's a little hard to say. I have only worked on it on the weekends - period. I started on July 28th, 2002. I had a little bit of a wait for the engine 'cause of the Sportsman Block. It was delivered in December. It's very straight forward and ffcobra.com is a hell of a resource. |
Doing a nice job
the engine looks sweet and your sheet metal in the engine bay looks great. Nice tires too. Keep up the good work Tim |
Very Nice!
