I'm getting ready to head out to the shop in a few minutes. I went out earlier and stoked the fire up, so it should be good and warm. I hope to get most everything knocked out today......maybe

Came in for some lunch and to post a couple pics. The DP is in and all the IC piping is in. Only things left to do in the engine bay are put the fan and shroud back on and put the batteries back in.

Look at all the room around the DP!!!
