Just kidding. I am helping. I look pretty and distract the landlord's wife from berrating our favorite GVR4 owner for leaving a light on in the fridge (every time that she opens the door, its on again!).

Got the motor in the car today. Now I just have to find the missing parts, and plug everything back together.

Oh, and fab up the IC stuff. fun times.

Eww, have fun getting those bottom exhaust manifold nuts on there with the motor in the car. I thought they were irritating with the motor on a stand fwiw.

Other than that, purrrty.

small hands, extensions & wobblies for the win. It's really not that difficult. You are just having a newb moment.

The rear motor mount, now that is hard. Or a pain in the behind, depending on what you want to call it.

I had a helluva time putting on the exhaust mani too, but arguably I was and currently am a newb.

Good work, Andrew. I'm free Wednesday night if you want me. Do you have to cut any new holes for the IC?

Bahh, not newb, just a pain

Alright tough guy, do the intake manifold and call that easy and I'll admit I'm a newb

And yes, the rear motor mount isn't very friendly either. Stripped the bolt out like crazy pulling it out the first time

should have some more better pictures tomorrow. those are from early this week.

p.s. wally, the manifold nuts took me about 5 mins to tighten all of them.
