Dropped the motor in the boat today. I would have taken some pictures, but I think I was about to stroke out (didn't eat anything all day and definately didn't drink enought water) by the end of the day.
Got the oil lines plumbed and the carb put back on the motor. Still need to install the exhaust, put the drive together (and put it on) and do a little more with the fuel plumbing (my carb isn't setup exactly like Sean's was).
I'll try to get some pictures tomorrow...
Tim, I don't see how you do it in 114* heat. I guess I should have been drinking beer

The thread, me... yep totaly worthless. I only got about 30 minutes to mess with it today (not counting putting my mess up and getting the boat out of the driveway so I can get to work tomorrow). About the only thing I accomplished was getting the studs in the drive for the drive spacer. I also got my fuel plumbing situated.
If it makes you feel and better the pictures would look the same today as they would yesterday

The motor look good sitting in there or is it lemon/lime sprite?

It's lymon. I'll put those other valve covers on and that will make it look a little better. Scotty offered to paint the air cleaner for me this fall/winter so that will look better.

Got to work on it today while Brit and Jr took a nap after a day at the pool. Got the ignition on and wired up. Got the exhaust on and got the oil temp sender wired up. I was going to put the valve covers on before I did the exhaust but I don't know what I'm going to do about the breathers....
Still have to put the drive together (and on) and put some fluids in the motor and I'll be ready to go.
Anywho, here are some pictures.

The valve covers and air cleaner kind of clash with the bilge. I've got another set of valve covers and will be getting the ac painted to match so it looks a little better...
