Busy weekend (454 build update)

[f_inscreenname]

I don't know what you guys have been up to but I have been busy. In the last three days I pulled the water logged 454 after work on Friday. Cleaned out all the milky crap and rebuilt the motor on Saturday. Sunday I installed it along with a number of other things I needed to do before installing it. I finished up around 7:45pm last night (almost dark, didn't really get started until 12pm) so I waited until after work today to do this,

Thanks again for everyone's help.

Thank you.

"Cool,......... I take it you used a Wrench this time,....??..........."
I bet the neighbors thought I was crazy as I counted out each bolt until I got to 16 and then started over again.
Its funny. I have a hundred plus pictures of the first build. This time, not a one. Its like it never happened. Now if I can convince my old body the same thing.

Thanks everyone.
A test drive wont come for a couple weeks. They are calling for rain this weekend anyway and I still have a list a mile long of little thing to complete. There is just not enough hours in the day lately.
