So today was a fun day in took 5 hrs to drill about 20 holes and pickup tb shaft seals.
But after that Pat & GH were determined to get something done so we started to put the head together and get the vacuum pump mounted.
Also thanks to Goatblower for drilling holes in the head for me.

Stupid PS / motor mount bracket that effed up my day and so I was unable to put the head on.
