dragtuners,
The parts are really looking good. I hope all goes well with the rest of the engine. Have you made any progress on the boat hull?
Good luck
Bob

dragtuners,
Looks like you have your hands full. Termites, yuk, are you going to have to replace all the wood in the boat?
That engine looks pretty rough too.
I found worms in one of my stringers but nothing like you have.
Good luck.
