Here are some picture during the completion of the engine.
Cam timing is done, and the chain tensioner istalled.
Continuing assembly.
I'm using silicon gaskets for the valve cover.
The fan and housing was powder coated over 10 years ago. Good to see it holds up nice.
More assembly
More to come.
Cheers

I'm out of adjectives Engelbert so I'll just use a good old standby: Awesome!!
It looks as good as or better than one from the factory back in the day.

Thanks for all the detail and pictures.
Just curious, but how many hours did the whole process take? (asking about your time in garage--not downtime for any outsourcing)
