Picked up the rest of the alloy parts that I want to re-finish, then set the boy to work.
Hoping to make it all look like this

Finally got the motor, tcase and transmission swapped into Cruiser #5.. and a pic from today 6 years ago that popped up on fb memories. On leave, first day back in the states after being deployed 3 years overseas. buddy’s 250 BARELY got it out
Headed up to Tahoe for the week, skiing Heavenly on the NV side.
Decided I needed a break from skiing so headed to Tacoma on the CA side of the lake and found some mild snow wheeling on Old Rubicon Road where the famed Rubicon ends. Couldn’t get much closer than the staging area so wheeled back and found a hike at Emerald Bay and burnt a few calories there......

Is that a coating on the exhaust headers?
Probably just high temp paint, was like that when I bought it off the last guy.

Just 7lbs or so. I was planning to do next winter, but kinda leaning towards now. I’m up to 160k mi on the motor so I think I’m ok on the rings.
Did a little degreasing today still have a ways to go
Welded in nuts to hold the fairlead:

Took her camping and fishing. Did some mild wheeling. Ate some good food, drank a lot. Good weekend.
A couple hundred miles on the LC fully loaded and she performed flawlessly of course. The access road was boring for her while the 4runner behind us had to carefully pick lines.
Beautiful fish, I love catching brown trout because size doesn't matter. They are so pretty that I am always excited to catch them. Plus they usually live in beautiful areas as well.
Brookie, not brown. Even better!
Nice, I saw the red spots and instantly thought brown trout.
This is what Utah brookies look like....

Nice!!!
Here in the mid Atlantic if you catch a 10 inch native, you've got a trophy.
We've got some huge browns in spring creeks and great smallmouth in the rivers but my favorite are tiny brooks in high mountain streams.
Interesting - so much variation in them critters. Right...your Utah brookie is definitely that (white trim on fins, dark body), but it's lacking what I consider the "normal" red spots with blue border, and the "worm" pattern on the back. The below pic is of brookies from a lake at about 6,000 ft in the southern Cascades near Mount Shasta, CA.

I didn't quite finish up last weekend but made great progress. Buttoned up the exhaust side and will finish up with the intake side next weekend.
Really excited to turn the key!
Pre Gasket
Head bolted on and cams in place
Exhaust side complete
The PHH Monster isn't nearly as scary without its intake manifold lair to protect it.
