What the convoluted tubing for all of it?
I was thinking about that but honestly im more interested
in gettin my damn motors back woohoo.
I cant wait to get them photographed too.
Ill take a ton of pics prior to them being dumped in.
Wife in Bikini next to the 2 engines WOOHOO
Beauty and the beasts!
This has been a labor of love and definately a challenge.
will I do it again
Hell no! Not anytime soon anyway.
This was definately more than I bargained for but mostly rewarding outcomes and definate happy bliss due to the fact when someone says Cool, where did you buy it at?
Ill get to say I built it!
Jon, if you have any other ideas on the wiring rigging, let me know.
I was going to start maybe looking around for the convoluted tubing in yellow (accent color) cause engines will be magenta, spark plug wires (new Taylors ready and waiting to go) are yellow so Id tie it all in with some of that tubing stuff.
Im going to start pulling some other stuff off tonight and paint the magenta on it (caps of the 2 resoviors for the drive fluid, Brackets of the drive fluid bottles, The screw jack for the engine hatch all magenta.)
Dont want TOO much magenta back there cause all the exhaust is all ready painted and ready to rock and roll
Another 2-3 weeks and she shall float again........
Im startin to get happy on this project

Dude there is NO WAY I will be done in three weeks. I hope and this is a big HOPE to be done by some time in August, but I have no idea when. I as you have hit a financial brick wall. All the backorders are killing me. BUT. I got billed for one of the larger ones I have been waiting for so hopefully that means that they are on their way and I can rock and roll on that guys house agian
