We finally finished installing the Paul Leavitt 403 into the Frazier coach.
It was everything Paul said it was.
It runs beautiful !!!
I could balance a half dollar on edge on the air cleaner it runs so smooth.
Put all new seals and gaskets including torque converter seal (not the head
gaskets) before installing into the coach.
After we got it running, we ran a compression test.
#1 & #8 were 150# and the rest were in the high 130s to low 140s.
Frazier's are so happy with it, they think they have a new coach.
THANK YOU Paul for the engine.
THANK YOU Carl for the hoist frame, it worked really well.
We used 2 come alongs putting it back in as we could tilt the engine and
transmission
to bring up through the hole.
It's the first one I've ever done and wouldn't hesitate to do it again.
