Here is me with the engine already hanging from the hoist. I took the transmission off first and then grabbed the engine just to make things lighter and a little easier. As you can see from the condition of my clothes this was a dirty, nasty, greasy mess. Did I mention that I really don't care for engine work :-) I am pretty excited about this stage though because after it's done I feel like I'm home free which is silly because there is still a TON of work to be done. After the engine however, I get back to the construction and systems side of things that I am much more comfortable with. Things are progressing well at this time which I hope continues.
