Time to overhaul the 7.7 liter six. Just about ready to come out. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Even with the vast sophisticated array of tools and equipment in my hangar, I wouldn't want to take on the overhaul of this engine. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) TBO is 1700. It has 1664 on a factory re-man. (that was done in 1968). (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) I'll be taking it up to Victor Aircraft in Palo Alto. I have to build an "A" frame and chain hoist to get the engine off the airplane first. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
