I'm finally getting the engine install completed and may even run it in sometime in December. It's been fun building an engine but it is time consuming.

Well I've been working on the p/s setup and the rear suspension. Got the radiator support on but still have some things to do. I might as well wait to start it until the weather warms up now.

The power steering is done along with a whole list of odds and ends. I put the fenders on tonight to hold the radiator support in position so I can finish the radiato install. It's getting close.

I got the radiator back from the shop last week. When I tried to put the fan shroud on I found that my 18" fan was actually 19". I felt like forcing it in and starting the engine and letting it self-clearance.

The radiator shop guy can sell me a new one cheaper that I can buy one from any of the catalogs and with no shipping costs so I guess that's next. Junk yarding is way too muddy right now so new is looking good.

So today I'll take the fan off and then install the radiator/shroud and trans cooling lines. I just looked at my to do list and there were 3 things done that I hadn't crossed off! I'm smokin'. Oh wait. I added 3 new ones too.
