On to engine building. We are using Wayne's book as well as the factory manual, i think as most do. She got the Saran Wrap out and cover up all places the piston pin clip could ge to when they shoot out at the speed of light. Clean, clean, clean. She like this part as it goes well with her level of OCD. She installed the piston pins and then cut up some PVC pipe to make the cylinder holders. I think she said they were 36mm long. We left the lower studs out to make it easier to push the wrist pins in and get the clips in. She used a screw driver to pop them into place. Not that hard to do for her little hands and I have the plans for a clip installing tool found here on Pelican, if it was needed. We got one side fully installed last night and she will finish up this morning before heading home to DC later this afternoon.
