I've heard that the Greek Islands are very popular with tourists... In your case i'd suggest a bit of Norway.

Norway is beautiful also with many islands. But I miss some beer cause I had to go without for 6 months now due to some medication.

Next is smoothing out, painting and drilling in the wholes.

Trany is assembled after major overhaul and now ready for installation..

A quickie....
My bad luck turned into a good tool!
The old trany shaft was the perfect clutch disk alignment tool for the clutch assembly;)

I would almost be a shame to use this engine in any car and get it dirty.

why let it get dirty???

You can always wipe it clean after each drive!

Wait and see how clean the whole setup would look like when it is all assembled;)
