Engine Time!

Hello Everyone!  You thought we gave up, but we didn't!

After the last trials and tribulations, we have made some progress on the engine.

Here goes:

Block is together, and the crank turns!

CCing the heads to figure out deck height and compression ratio.
Got it to a nice 7.4:1

Installing cylinders and pistons

Cylinder heads on

Checking the crankshaft end-play (gonna need different shims!)

Cylinder baffles were making me mad!  They got bent up when we took them off - good now:)

Next: Valve train!

Getting Cozy on the Inside

It has been a bit but here is the latest:

Sliding door is on and the icebox has counters and is in place

Windscreen is in

Happy to be looking down the road

Floor "before" in case you forgot

Back floor is in

Icebox

How the little table works. -Like the staging with the  drinks cooler?

Side view - no, Suzanne doesn't have a catheter, that's the drain for the icebox! (not cut to length yet)

New table

Right side with the door

The weather is getting cool.  So we hope to have the inside done and the gas tank in before it gets nasty out.  

Nice to have you visit!  Y'all come back now!

ps:  We will have engine pictures some day....
