Very tight fit



I forgot how tight the fit a Fiat motor is,we spent about 5 hours shoehorning the motor in, it almost got Mayuko ready to blow a gasket, she did the rough work under the car and looked like a real grease monkey at the end of the day.
The hard part is done, we will get things connected and the timing best installed tomorrow, hopefully burning gas before noon.
P.S.
After struggling for a couple of hours trying to mate the engine and trans, I removed the motor mounts from the engine block allowing just enough room to wiggle it home.
