Much Cleaner

Here's the engine, all cleaned up and Scotch-Brited. I used old rubber gloves to block off major openings and the exhaust pipes.

I think I'm done for the weekend. I'm taking tomorrow "off" and going to play with Kid B, unless I get some time and feel like messing around with it a bit more.

I put it at TDC for #1 (as shown, verified by the flywheel mark,) gently put the FI rail back over the engine, and cleaned it up for the day.

I'll order the parts in my Laundry List from Pelican or Vertex tomorrow.

I think, with the little things going wrong, I'm going to take the time to do this correctly, and make it a "3 weeks to a good running Porsche" project.

Off to dinner. Siannan and I are getting Thai food!
