Thanks Bill... The driveline arrived today so I began the alignment process. I tried to order it over the winter but they weren't making new shafts until now so I probably got a little ahead of myself trying to keep myself busy continuing on the build without it. Turns out I installed my strut about...

I have made some progress over the winter. Engine is installed. Waiting for the driveline to arrive to do my alignment. Plumbing, blower and electrical done. The first time I turned on the batteries I was expecting a fire or nothing to work, but amazingly every light, bilge, blower etc all turned ri...

Thanks for the pic and tips Skip. Glad to see that you were able to relocate the expansion tank. I will likely give that a try. I think I should have the room. Still may also lower the whole engine another few inches and that would solve it. So far I just have a very rough alignment until I track do...

Thanks Chris...I checked out your Monaco...It is beautiful! Strong work...Already picked up a few tips from looking at your pics. I actually started frames about 4 years ago and seriously put in time starting about 3 years ago...So I'm not moving as quickly as it looks, I just was a bit delayed in p...

Looks Awesome Mate!
