Well the motor's back in.. 200 1986

On my project 240 revival. It only took three weeks or so, not bad for my schedule.

Only leak so far is the stupid trans pan gasket, I snugged it up one more time, if that don't help I'll look deeper in. Pan and flange looked fine, good gasket, dunno. Could be worse.

It still runs rough, but it's just like every other 240 I've ever looked at a running engine on, except it moves less since the mounts are new. There isn't anything else to replace or adjust at this point so I suppose I'll just drive it and see how oil consumption is. I probly should have put a headgasket on it while it was out, it would figure if the turbo never needed one and this NA will in a week or some such sillyness.

Now suspension! Or in a week or two after I recover anyway.
