the joy of a successful motor rebuild

[niftyrodman]

All the anxiety at the point of startup. Will the rear main seal mod work? Did I install it correctly? Did I set the valve timing right? Then. Engine busts into life. No strange noises. I rev the engine. Sounds good. It will take a day or two to believe all O.K.

Anxious times! But as you inhale all those new smells from it all warming up and it's running well is a very satisfying feeling.
Long may it last.
