Year one

It's been a year and one week since this came to stay and today was really the first day on a weekend that I could roll it outside. It snowed about 4 inches here yesterday but it is leaving quickly. I'm anxious to get the head back so I can button up the upper engine. I don't like the idea of the cylinders open when smoothing parties are on going. Too much opportunity for grit to find it's way in. One problem that I just discovered is that the tranny is leaking slightly from the reverse gear shaft. This shaft sticks out the back of Moss boxes and the oil is held in by a rubber o-ring. Hopefully I can pull the shaft out enough to replace the o-ring without pulling the tranny off again.
