i'm going to meet with bill at his place around 1:30pm ish to load up some stuff and then we're going to head over to JW to pick up the engine ... so, if anyone wants to swing by at JW around 2:15/2:30 to help load/unload, that would be great ... i'll buy dinner and beers!

I'll try to get there around 2:00. Which probably means I'll get there at 2:30. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)

The 3.6 is on a pallet strapped down. JWE has a forklift. It shouldn't be too much trouble loading....it's the unloading by "hand" that's going to be a bit tougher. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)

Actually it shouldn't be too bad. It's always easier to lower than to lift. Have a furniture dolly (or two) handy to lower the palette on and you should be good. Or use a solid core door as a ramp like Mueller and I did for the Subaru engine.
And all this advice comes from someone who won't be there to help, so guess what it's worth. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/bootyshake.gif) |

I'd like to help but my back hurts and I'm way down here in Orange County and I'd just get in the way anyway. Is the 3.6 going in the red car?
