My Lunch time project

I am hoping that in another 6 hours from now, I will have on my truck my Modded ( thanks jkidd aka Andrew ) 17* pump..

So what you guys think, if I start at noon, will it be done at 1:00?

Nope. It takes about an hour to take one off. Longer to put it back on unless everything goes just right. Brandon (posts as Barndon) and I have taken one off of an extra motor, taken his off, put the extra on his, taken it off (leaks), put it back on, sent his off for upgrade, pulled the extra back off and put the upgraded one back on, all in the last 2 weeks. If we hurry, we might be able to get one off and back on in just short of 2 hours since we know what we are doing now after having done it so many times.

I am thinking I am pulling this off at lunch, and just reinstalling after work. But the kicker to this is I have been here since 5:00, so 1:30 would be my 8 hours, even I push it to 2:00, I should still be able to leave here by 3:00.. But it will be a fun challenege

1 hr and 5 minutes buttoned her up and put my tools away. I would have done better but I busted 2 10mm socketts on the HPOP. So it took me some time get some from another box.

I still need to add oil and put the plug back on top of the resovoir though. This may take awhile, I dont know that I have a small enough funnel...
