Subject:Engine and tranny out!
From:Warren.K.Lail-1

I brought my bus back to Oklahoma last weekend, and today I pulled the engine and tranny.  Yeah, Baby!  Three ours and it was all out - a clean job so far.  Now I'm excited to begin working on cleaning the engine compartment, replacing fuel, water, and vacuum lines, install a new radiator, and on and on (and an auto alarm).

Now let the games begin!  AVP is still my engine builder of choice (good experience with them in the past).  I'll order the engine next week and if the weather cooperates, I'll have Billy Bones up and running within a couple of weeks (maybe three).  So, be ready for questions - when I took this step today, it represented the furthest I've ever been from the Shire.
