800 lbs. 8000 miles.

Hullo there...taking a minute to share this recent arrival...an 800lb crate full of Enfield engine parts that I'd ordered from India finally reached here, safe and sound. Plenty of essential bits like cylinder heads, cams, rockers, pushrods, studs, pumps, gaskets...the list goes on and took a long time to compile...I kept coming up with more little doodads to add to it. Have opened all the boxes by now and everything seems to be intact. I must say, getting a crate shipped over via ocean...is not something for the faint of heart. Various complicated little documents and regulations and fees needed, none of which is intelligible to a mere mortal, best to go through a broker, which is what I ended up doing, in spite of the hefty additional fees.
The large chunk of my hard earned savings that went into getting this here is making me sweat but it also confirms that I'm in this for real, for sure, no turning back.
Have plenty more pics of build progress, engine is installed in the frame, got kicked over, compression is excellent. Wiring in the ignition, installing carbs, will be uploading pics soon.
Progress on replying to emails is very limited for now and I really appreciate your patience. This build completed, my primary focus will be to provide you with the information you need...which is continually being gathered and updated via this build. A LOT was learned and refreshed in my memory in terms of ALL the little things that are needed to get a complete machine.
Thank you very much, once again.
