Got out in the garage this morning
Had a tidy up and sorted out parts for engine and got the block on the stand, seem to have misplaced the dowels for the main caps!!
Got some paint coming so aim to get block painted one evening then start putting bottom end together next sat.
Also cleaned a years worth of dust off and put the cover back on her.











Headache inducing instructions!!



Cheers geoff
