we started up at 9:30 in the morning and the transplant went off so smooth as all parts need are available. the engine was tested at around 10:30 pm with good indications that the engine is healthy.

tomorrow we will be back in our backyard garage to finish it all up and hopefully have some road test. i took some pictures and will post it up for you guys to be updated.

whew one more day to go. yey!

5 luggers to follow as we do some exhaust pipes install as swap is on going...


need to do some basic clean ups on brakes prior to install as engine is now running well. 4 lugs still in use.

maybe paint the caliper red also to have more braking power nyahahahahaha
