by 4pm cool down starts

but moreover you need daylight ,,, doing this at night is a major pita

every swap and major work that steve , wayne clive and myself have done has always been during the day into the night but then again was always done in my garage with loads of light and clean floor



i still suggest tomm starting in the afternoon but its up to you

Idk. I'm in favor of not having to deal with the sun and get Robert back on the road and boosting again! But either way I'll be there.

I spoke to Robert earlier and he was already working on taking off the majority of the parts so that later today we could knock out the swapping part of the motor...

i will try and stop by and lend a hand why couldnt this be done sat afternoon instead of doing this in the middle of friday night guys

not a good idea tobe doing motor install in darkness

i would really ask to do this starting sat late afternoon like around 3ish as its starting to cool down and that gives us 4 hrs of daylight more then enough time for stuff


and we dont have to worry about bugs at night
Wuzzup I helped out too.and yeah maybe Saturday afternoon is better.
