Day 2 of the engine build.


Head looks funny without valve guides and rocker arms, etc.



Front cover is now on.



Early lunch.



There we are. I knew I had a picture of the rocker arms  installed. The parts are all over and easy to find. Bolts and nuts are being elusive. I should be much further along but marina does not carry any of the ones I need so far.



Of course I am still struggleing to find nuts and bolts. I have never had this problem before. Must be a boat thing :-)



This is all it gets for today. I have got to clean up around here so I can find things. I can still have it in by noon and running within a couple hours.



After a hot shower you need sustenance. I am having a can of chicken breast, fruit btype stuff and apple sauce with a strawberry margarita. I might even eat a hot meal again when I no longer have an engine in the galley.
