No need for four guys, make your self a cab lift out the engine hoist.

Wylie - what "black" did you use for your air cleaner? Is that satin? Semi gloss?

That was Rust-oleum Semi-Gloss Protective enamel.

Sprays really nice. And for some stuff I spray matte or gloss Clear, helps with scratches.
On a side note, I will have to paint that air cleaner for a third time...It bumped out of my hanger twice and hit the ground... after perfect coat.... :bashhead:

Love the rebuilt Engine! Great job on it.

Thanks for the picture because you have something on the passenger side I can't figure out what it is?

What is the item in the red circle?

I seem to have missed the rebuild part. What was done during the rebuild?
