I understand now Nick, but you let me down because you have not finished the mower!

Bummer. That's no good. More delays on the engine stuff?

Just now touching back with R-F (been away since my 97 was totalled by a drunk & I got the Foxbody), and Matt told me on FB about Beard's build. Wow, dude. Just fv*king wow.

Loving the engine ****. Good job Zach + Nick, hope the wrist heals correctly without hang-ups, and y'all are doing what a lot of us wish to do one day. Thanks for the info, too.

I just read 33 pages of this, so sorry in advance if this was quickly addressed or what during the oil pan discussion: Do you have pics of the motor mounts? What's the plan for fuel delivery (stock Navi pump fuel / lines)?

May the Ford Gods shine upon you the rest of this build.
