Over the next week watch for the Engine Build 101 posts as week bring 5N4K3 to life.
Two Years and one month to the day and we are off to Forte's to build and install the Engine. All of you know how much of a gentleman Mike Forte is, and how much knowledge he has on all things Factory Five. So when he heard I was doing this build to maintain a relationship with my teenage son and be the "Go-To" house for his friends, Mike said," Then bring them up when you are ready for an engine, and I'll teach them how to build one and get it installed. How could you refuse such a great offer from a great guy?
<u>Saturday: June 16, 2007</u>
So Saturday 5N4K3 touch down on the ground on its own tires for the first time. We backed it out of the garage and loaded it on the trailer. 5N4K3 saw the light of day for the first time. What a great day, "birthing out of the garage".
Stay tuned for Part 2: The Drive
