Yep, we have a cherry picker. Lets let Lucas pick up the rod bearings and your help with the bearings would be awesome!

Since we have a 'go' from Lucas, I'll go and pick this up. There is an Ace hardware store down the street. I'll go grab the long bolts for this. Following is a $35 engine stand (now don't go out and beat me to this):

On a completely different note, check this out:

Awesome! sounds like a plan! LMK if you need any help w/getting any of it to your house. Also, we need to pull the oil pan and get the bearing #'s off the engine so that'll have to wait until we get it on the engine stand, but I can get bearings from Greg along w/all the other gaskets and stuff in one order. Since we have the stand, maybe a front and rear main seal is in order for replacing as well I'm working on getting this battery relocation stuff together too.

Also, regarding the clutch cable. I didn't realize you didn't have it already. I have one in my trunk I've been carrying around I could have let you use until your new one came in.

BTW, wtf is with that HD engine stand lol? Why is there a picture of a bathroom? For $400 it better come w/that entire bathroom.

That one looks okay, I saw the $400 one but not the other one. I like the 1000lb one simply because it has the legs in front in a "t" shape.
The ecu should work, I can just swap out the chips if that's okay with you. Yeh, once it's on the stand we can get the numbers off the crank and get the bearings ordered. There really aren't any other gaskets in the lower part of the motor other than the front and rear main seals. I have the Nissan tool for taking off the lower oil pan too. I will order some stuff from Greg too at the same time to save some shipping. I need a ve gasket set and a set of ve intake manifold runners ..... I think I just gave away a secret I hadn't let out yet. Oops!!!

Yeh I got a 16ve head and cams. Now I just need to build the shortblock. I need to find someone close that has an sr20 torque plate too! Anyone have any ideas?

It seems we have a set install date of February 19th.

If bearings and other items are ordered this week, we'll try to install the bearings sometime the week after or so on(?). This mini-install session will also include the walbro fuel pump, valve cover gasket and couple other miscellaneous items.
