Ya, your T3 is one of my all time favorites. If I had time, $$ and space I would do that too.

Well, there is no turning back now. I just bought the tri-ported heads. I hate buying big things, but it is really what is needed to make the engine correct for what it is. Gonna need to rebuild me a few more gear boxes to pay for this (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif)

Quit your belly-aching. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I might have a tranny to send to you this winter out of my 914. Doesn't NEED it, but I want it gone through and an "H" 5th installed.

Alright EvilOne, as soon as I get my Monster back on the road I'm sending you a tranny!

Probably 3-4 weeks?

Oh oh, the heads, adapters, and stuff showed up today (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I started dropping the engine yesterday. I have the CIS apart and am starting to evaluate the feasibility of CIS vs MegaSquirt. the bus will crave some more $$ before it will be right, but the biggest part is now here (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) Pics later.

Today it was sunny, 52*, and I was OFF of work (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) So, I got to do some work on the bus. The engine is almost ready to come out. It only needs the starter wires and tranz cooler hoses removed, and then I can drop it. I spent some of today welding/modifying jack stands, too. Scotty B is on his way over for New Years....maybe I will turn him out (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) I hope to have the engine out this weekend, but it is supposed to rain some time. Nothing pic worthy yet.

So, while jacking the ass end of the bus, the thing shifted and fell to the side opposite of me. There is still a bit of a hill and it is now soft grassy ground. I seem to have this under control now with the ass end up about 18", but I need a way to get my engine out from under the bus once I drop it. I designed a dolly with 10" pneumatic tires that will allow me to lower the engine and drive train down on top of it and roll the whole package out from under the bus. I got about 1/3 of it done tonight in my basement (not cold! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) ) and will hopefully have it done and used tomorrow.

Ok, I know you guys could care less without pics, so here is the all terrain engine dolly.

First the bare frame.

With minimal skin. I am gonna try it like this first. It is sturdy and stands less than 7" from the ground to the deck. It is hard to type with my left hand after all of the trauma.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

FINALLY! I got to use my contraption and got the engine out pretty easily. Kind of hairy once the cradle was pointed down hill in order to get it into the garage. No much traction on a painted floor wet with snow (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
Now the fun begins (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

That frame you made looks strangely familiar! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

You used bigger wheels though.

Also the bus in the air like that in the snow also looks strangely familiar! lololol

ALOMST looks like fun til you realize that driveway is as steep as Zachs and is most likely half a sheet of ice (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
