Brief Description:  Work Photos and Engine Standoff

I worked the photos I took last night for a while and compressed them in order to make reasonable size files.

I then went into the shop for a bit and worked a cable support bracket for the starter wires on the right side of the engine. I got that fabricated and painted before the end of the session.

On a side note......Ralph and I were temporarily mounting the standby alternator and realized that the spacer required to go inbetween the alternator flange and engine flange would not allow the male and female splines on the shaft and gear to connect. After a little head scratching I just determined to call Rhonda at Barrett. Well, she responded to my email in quick fashion, as she always does, and with her direction I found an extension in the misc parts box that is used as an extension for the alternator shaft. Problem solved.....Barrett always seems to have their act together.....even when I don't....haha.
