Installing new engine tommorow...

[Tifflusk]

Tomorrow my new engine will be here and the install will start also. Any advice to me before we get started. We have a lot of rearranging to do so wish me luck.

Guinness. Lots of it.

Before you start that engine, go through the checklist:

• Oil
• Coolant
• Hoses
• Belts
• Gaskets (none left, right?)
• Vac lines all secure
• All electrical connections in place and secure
• Battery
• Electrical connections
• Vac lines
• Belts
• Hoses
• Coolant
• Oil

And don't forget the Guinness!

That might be a streach..... Good luck on your install and I would do a double check on timing too. Alot of people mess this up.
