Front cover, water pump and oil pan installed. You can see the upper timing chain and “slider” which the head will slip down over.

Head, cams, chain/tensioner, thermostat housing in place.

The thermostat housing took a bit of fiddling to accept the two temp gauge senders and the bush for the sensor which cuts off the a/c if things get too toasty.

Also, I had to block off a small opening in the heater hose/bypass fitting. Used a small piece of copper and solder.


Just for grins, I mocked up the dizzy and cam cover for a “sexy” shot. Not a fan of the blue wires, but I got some neat black loom to cover those.
