She's alive!

I finished hooking up and bolting down the new crate motor this morning. After many trips to this forum, looking at yalls pictures and reading the advice posted here, my 86 runs like new again. Thanks to all who have shared their knowledge. My dogs are ready to ride!

Re: She's alive!

Ok, here it is. I ran the motor at different rpms per break in instructions. I dumped the oil and refilled with a new filter. Let the 500 mile break in began.
