Andrew,


Great pictures! I saw this car in person a few weeks ago and it was in great condition.

Glad to hear you got a great deal from Kurt on another motor and you will be back in business very soon.

:cheers:

Thanks for the update and especially the photos :cheers:

You need a load leveler when you reinstall the engine me thinks ;)

Chicago, IL 32 deg and snowing
Micanopy, FL 60 deg and sunny :D

Yep, I like that pic too!

Load leveler arrived via USPS an hour after that pic was taken! Good to go for the new motor installation.

One thing I thought was interesting, that I forgot to comment on earlier ---

the harmonic balancer had NO pins in it for the 'fine tune' balance that I hear folks talking about.

Then the vibration level on your engine was within spec without the need of additional balancer trim weights when it was checked during the factory dyno test. Did you find any trim weights in the DM flywheel?
