Today we did the following:
Installed all six cylendars and pistons into the engine block, installed oil baffle plate and oil pick up, installed the right side head, installed valve cover oil vent baffle plate, installed the engine ID plate, made a list of hardware needed.

I realized that I recieved two right side head gaskets from D-Ind rather than a left and right set. Pretty frustrating since I was all prepped to install both heads today. So I messaged Josh to get the left side gasket ASAP. I also discovered more bolts and washers needed for the engine. I am going see if Josh will send the head gasket free of charge and give me free shipping on the hardware.

I don?t want to sound like I?m complaining, because I love your thread and I know it?s a lot of work for you to document it here. But could you possibly put one blank space (line) between pictures?

I've found that Tapatalk is a lot better for uploading pictures but I don't think it can do that. But it might be possible i 100% don't know. He could possibly edit his pictures with a border. It all depends how much more work he wants to do.
I definitely like the work that they are doing.

Ah yes, puters can be so easy and so hard at the same time. I can live with the pics touching. Carry on.

I have tried to do a picture or two with a description of that picture or pictures then do another page with one or two pictures with a description of those and so on but as you may guess this is very time consuming. The other day it was a long frustrating day so I just did a photo dump.
As far as spacing them out I am not sure if I can do that or not. I'll see.
To make matters worse I don't have the paid for version so I can only upload one picture at a time which can be a pain some times.

Josh from D-Ind shipped the left side head gasket right away so we received it two days ago (Wednesday). I was pleasantly surprised.
