Dont worry, it's coming. We moved it up towards the building because if it stayed where it was then it wouldn't get done, now I have to look at it all day so I'll be more inclined to work on it lol. If I can get the engine work done and hook some basic things up then maybe we can get it running this weekend or sometime next week to see what it sounds like, the rest will come in due time

Got some nice MLS for ya bud haha @Eds_Auto

Swapped the alternator and compressor from the old engine for various reasons, bolted it all down and making some progress. In other news, I will do EVERYTHING in my power to make sure these dipstick tubes fit, I'll clearance the hood if I have to

Slow going at the moment but I'm trying to get on it more. Need to do a little bit of wire lengthening and I think we'll be able to use the factory harness from the Hoe, after tweaking a few things of course.

Hey, quality takes time! (often spoken at my work... by yours truly. 'Course I don't have to manage anyone but myself.)
