I think remembering to take pics while removing the engine will be the last thing on his mind
But getting the wife or someone else will be great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hope all is going well.

:x What the hell Jeff ? I just got home from work"yes sunday even" got me a no headlight ticket at 6:50 and hour from home before I even MADE it to work,then spent the last hour waiting for a state trooper at the neighboring towns barracks to VERIFY I fixed it and still have to by a stamp to prove I'm law abiding. All this and all I wanted to do was come home open a beer and look at all the pics of the removal job. You cant use an injury for the non response as we blessed you early this morning :P . will check back ina while

OK people! IT is over. It took 35 minutes. the chain fall would not slide so we had to walk it out. My system was flawless, heard a few crinkles but nothing to worry about even though I was worried. I spent more time yelling at my buddy who was careless under the system I built than we did doing the removal. I am about to post 14 pics so enjoy!! It was fun time! by 9 am we wernt even thinking about the motor any more, so we started pulling the rub rail and the head, other parts. we even pressure washed and gutted the entire aft? i dunno. Under the engine decking area. she is amost there!!! here are te pics! gimmie 10 minutes
