Response to Grandpa
Sorry I dont have more pictures but this is all I have right now!

Engine on stand to install windage tray and oil pan gasket



On the RH side the gasket didnt quite line up so I had to make a couple minor mods with a razor. Still sealed up good I think.



Rear main seal was a bit of a bugger. The kit I got came with 2 seals, one was too small and the one was too big. I took this one, and cut the excess so it was flush with the oil pan. It sealed good upon installation of the pan so I think I'll be fine, i inspected it very close and I am satisfied.



Gramps and I putting the motor up on the forklift for installation into the boat.



You'll never see a 327F so HIGH in your life!!! ..and I mean that in the most literal way possible!



These 2 pictures are exactly the same, just 20 years apart!
