You can do it! If I can, then anyone can do it. I can remove bolts and might be able to put them back in the right spot. That's about as far as my knowledge goes.

Looks like I'm going to try and put the motor in this coming weekend!! The hoist is available, my neighbor "should" be home *fingers crossed* (he's a pilot and is on reserve standby this weekend), and the wife agrees that it's time to get the motor in (my biggest hurdle). It helps when my son was disappointed that I didn't bring the "crane" home to put the motor in his truck.
