Reply to "Mangusta Engine Removal and Rebuild"

mkehMember

I was so tired of seeing that empty engine bay!!! Then so stressed about the install... Luckily I recruited several friends that are also wrenchers... More eyes and hands are always a good thing when shoving the baby back into the womb!!!

Only issues so far were that the alternator bridge wouldn't go in until I unbolted the frame bride and lifted the ZF up a bit... But it's in and happy... Also, somehow when I put the shifter shaft back in i ran the rear end of it outside of the frame rails and didn't tuck it back in at the rear... and of course now I have to take apart the middle u-joint to route it properly... But no broken rear window or damaged parts... So I call it a good day...

I hope to have her ready to start next weekend...

Thanks to you Steve and the rest of you guys for all the tips, advice, warnings and encouragement along the way... Front suspension is next, then off to paint and body...

The journey continues!!!
