Picture of display engine's bottom
I still can't post pictures here. Mental block. I have, however managed to post a picture of the bottom side of the engine, all buttoned up, on facebook. Take a look see. I post on Facebook under the name Lawson Cox, of all things. It is about ready to roll back over and start hanging some goodies on the top side. I like pretty bottoms. LOL

Re: Picture of display engine's bottom
I appreciate the compliments fellows. I am sort of pleased with the project/progress so far.
Thanks Will D and V8Coopman for posting the pictures for me. I have always propped up the front of an engine on this kind of stand with a 2x4, Charlie NY. The old rug is from our Keeping room. I wish I had not put it down. I can't hear it when I drop something small and then it disappears in the rug pattern. I still cannot locate a wing nut off of an air cleaner. And Kube, I thought maybe the pan bolts should be Raven black. I should have posted a question but then I said to myself that nobody is going to get down on their hands and knees and check them over, so I'm gonna just leave them as is. After all, I DO wanna get this engine done before I ride off into the sunset. Knowing me I'll probably redo them, Good Lord willing... but I do have a sick child to get running right again. I have quite a few parts ready to hang on when I flip the engine over. My next little bit of prep is to blue the engine head nuts, tips of the studs and the H10 coke bottle spark plugs.

Re: Picture of display engine's bottom
We're heading over to the museum on our way to the Detroit Autorama next week. Probably won't have it done by then. chuckle

Re: Picture of display engine's bottom
Lawson,
What is the stick poking out of the engine bottom? I have a wrinkled empty slot there. My A has a split pin |

Re: Picture of display engine's bottom
when I flip the engine over. Sure hope that you don't flip that engine over, altho that engine stand you have will flip over if you are not careful, I do not like the three legged engine stands.

Yeah. I'm always very careful doing that.

Re: Picture of display engine's bottom
Probably not. Kube says no. He's the 40 guru. This engine is 39 commercial.

Re: Picture of display engine's bottom
The stand I have in mind has a cutaway engine on it. a later than early 30s engine. I am not really computer literate when it comes to forwarding emails w/pictures.
