Here she is, the last time we'll see her with the engine I built and installed in 2001, at least for now. Maybe someday it will go back in.

Now we'll play a game. See if you can spot what's been removed.

... and this is where we leave off for the first day. I didn't get started until about 4 PM and quit about 7:30.

Today, Friday June 29, 2012, this is how we started. The goal for this evening is to remove the fuel line, the intake, the oil sender plumbing, the distributor and valve covers. Tomorrow we'll do some cleaning and adjust the valve.

The distributor has a steel gear. Here is a nice shot showing that it's not wearing out very quickly. It's still in really good shape.
