It took me a while but I got the rear sail vinyl and rear bulkhead vinyl installed along the the rear speakers. Then I had to wrestle the rear window into place. That was a total PITA as I was using a new upper seal. Getting the window in place with the seal was such a struggle
, but finally worked it up high enough so I could get the lower seal in place.
Now it was time to finally put the engine in! Darin (Darwoodius) who is in the process of doing his own K20 swap, and Gerald (Roobus) who has a K20 swap that was done by MWB, were both nice enough to drive down to Olympia today to help. Darin's experience with putting his engine in and out was invaluable as he had some good tips as we were negotiating the tight fit into the engine bay.
I can't thank these guys enough
. We got the clutch line bled and the slave cylinder installed, then lowered the car over the engine, then hoisted the engine up into the bay. We had to do a little modification of the subframe as it was interfering on the parking brake pulley cover but managed to do it without having to take the engine out again. Anyway, here it is in place.
There is still a lot to do, but this was a milestone
