September 5, 2003:

Tonight I picked up the motor from Shiner D. We even did a "dyno pull" involving a hood spring, some nylon straps, and an inner tube. It's best not to ask.

Before working with heavy equipment, always be sure to keep hydrated!

The motor is IN! The cables are routed and the chain in place. A quick test ride confirmed all is well....for the most part. I had some tweaking to do to get the brake and throttle linkages working well. Could still use some more brake, though.

Don't forget the duct tape!!

Now it's time to accessorize, baby!

Tomorrow I bring it to Tweedle's house for installation of "Skully" and the cross.
