6 weeks to go! Engine bolted in and should light the fire in the morning.

Don't forget the ever important first fire video!

That motor mount bed looks like it's raw wood, is there some sort of barrier on it to keep water from soaking in? That wood is right down in the bilge with that inline setup sitting on the ribs.

Hopefully a video of her firing up will be today. It has been over 10 years since this motor ran.
