Well I finally decided where to place the battery and it is now installed. Wiring done except for the wiring up the tail lights which I plan to complete this week. Next Saturday I should be able to do a brief start of the engine, oil in it, but no coolant, just to see if it will start. After this the only thing left is the exhaust which is a project for next month. After that, a hunt for a PTO unit.
I had Brass Works rebuild one of my radiators so I have a used one installed for now until I run it some to flush out any rust pieces, then I will install when I add anti-freeze. Brass works also makes a high volume pump (more fins) for the Zipp high rise so it will give me a chance to see how cool the engine will run. If I need to switch out the I6 pump, it will be done when I install the new radiator. Getting close to having it done.
