While in place, I scribed the bearings to help get them aligned when installing the crank.

I then got out the bags of hardware for the engine case and heads. Time to get busy cleaning and inspecting.

Left case half installed, and the case through-bolts moderately tightened.
And...the crank spins smoothly. Now I can put it together for real. Attached thumbnail(s) |

I decided to get the rear window ready to install, so I can get on to more interior stuff.
Another milestone, since this is the first piece of glass I pulled out of storage. But the rear window looks pretty gunky. Attached thumbnail(s) |

The PO sure believed in silicone. This is from the inside! The outside had a good portion of overspray.

After scraping, solvent, and windex, the window looks pretty good and ready to install.
