Imperial Heart Surgery:  Freshening the Motor, and Some Other Stuff

February 12, 2014:  Bieberization of the motivation.

The motor is finally being installed, and here are some pictures.  We start off with the Justin Bieber treatment for my intake and while I appreciate the attempt to keep spare kibbles and bits out of my motor, not being a Belieber, I didn't appreciate this as much as one might expect:

 

Here, the motor has started its trip, leaving the engine stand and hanging from the hoist.

 

Lookee there!  It's dangling in there!  The motor seems to really change color depending on lighting.  Take my word for it, it's actually the correct turquoise color, not blue, and not green.

 

Justin Bieber looks out at us toward the right fender.

 

The view from the left fender.

Next:  I love it when plan starts to come together.

Previous:  It's beginning to look like a 440.
