Without much fanfare I hoisted the engine into place and stabbed the bolts. Prior to that I pulled the mags to clear the engine mount and anchored the tail with some weight to avoid CG problems. Unfortunately the isolation dampners were the wrong type for this particular mount. I need to order some new ones anyway as these are several years old along with new bolts. While I have the engine supported by the liftI plan to fit the exhaust to see if the 4 into 1 collector that came with this engine will work on my -8.
Once I removed the mags now it's time to lift it up
In place and bolts stabbed.
The compression sleeve inside is too long so I can't tightnen them up.
