ITS ALIVE!!!! (was Re: [T3] engine is ready)


ITS ALIVE!!!
Well, I got the engine in no problem, I used 3 hydrolic floor jacks with
wheels to move and position the engine, (three points make a plane)  I
worked till 1 in the morning connecting this and that  This morning I
finished all connections, double checked, triple checked...17-uple checked
various things.  I first cranked the engine for a little bit without the
fuel injectors connected in order to get oil through everything before it
started to get hot.  Then I hooked the injectors up, it started up after a
few seconds of cranking, and I drove around the block, very slowly and
carefully.  I have to get used to the new clutch, and not being able
to hear the engine while I'm driving, it's so quiet.  :-)

I have so many digital pictures I would love to show you guys, but they are
all 1280 x 960.(large...)  Eventually, I will put some on viss.org   right
now that points elsewhere, so don't bother to try.

Thanks,
