Got a few things done. Engine back in frame. Buddy stopped by and we horsed it in. Before I do another one of these I'm going to build something similar to the hydraulic engine lifter posted here this week. Damn things ain't all that heavy, just hard to find lift points. At the least I'll make 2 lift bars like 5twins posted.
On Monday I ordered carb parts. They got here late in week and then I went through the carbs. After reading Mailman's problems I also ordered fittings to check float settings and possible seat leaking. Carbs ready to go on should have new fuel lines here tomorrow so I can install them and check float height. Carbs aren't real shiny but I think they are clean.
Andrews coil showed up so I made a bracket to mount it. ( Thanks for the pics 5twins) It's a tight fit. The tank will go on. Bracket in paint both now. Looks like there should be enough clearance on each side of coil.
Also have a Pamco ignition coming, plus a bunch of other stuff. Might hear this damn thing make noise in a week or two.
