    engine swap

    When my engine blew Jul 1 a lot of people thought it was the head gasket but since I have not pulled the engine or heads I don't know for sure yet. I do know I had a few small chunks in the oil pan and the oil looked fine. Your build is looking very nice.

    engine swap

    I'm glad Gimpy found the gantry up the street from my house that I bought, AND he found the 5-ton chain hoist at the Marengo show in July. The parts and everything look pretty clean and the engine will be pretty when it's done. Almost too pretty get dirty. :-)

    engine swap

    We are going to pull the entire power pack at once. Although it says 1-ton on the beam that was for the 20-25 foot long beam, mine is about 12 feet. I believe in having a lot of unneeded capacity for safety.

    engine swap

    I'm getting ready to change mine as well. I finally got my 5-ton chain hoist on crane with a new trolley on Saturday. We are going to have an engine swapping get together after the GA Rally. I tested my setup by picking up the front of the Deuce. :-)
