It's Got an Engine
This weekend was a big one for me. N754RV has an engine mounted on it. 
Thanks to my buddies Jon, Jim, Phil, Ian, Mike and Harley Dave for their help we got it done and I am off to a new stage of the project.
From this:
To this:
What a great weekend.

Looks Good!
Daryl
Congrats!
What a great way to spend the weekend. Looks like the results were worth the effort. I look forward to doing the same thing soon. My engine is sitting in a crate in the corner of the garage. Sure would look better hanging off of the firewall.

Looks great Daryl. Congrats. You saw the service bulletin about the bad engine mount bolts, right?  (Just kidding.) |

You are a very bad man. That caused me to soil myself. 
I already have an AD on the fuel servo and the Ryton replacment sump should be here tomorrow. 2 things to fix and its not even been first start yet.
Thanks for the heart jumpstart.

Cool!
Daryl:
Wicked Shaaap, as they say in these parts. It means "looks great" by the way. I wish I were there.
Today was EFIS day for me. I got my AFS 3500EE. Woohoo!

Good choice
I have 60 hrs on my AFS 3400EE and have been very satisfied. Would have used the 3500 but ran out of room on my RV-7 panel.
