Frame change, suspension transferred, drive train complete!
Add fluids and gas ready to start
Key on Engine fires first thing but...

Engine has a very LOUD KNOCK!

So need suggestions on a machine shop that can make repairs!

Nothing like waiting to the last moment

Alan
Thank you for the offer. Engine/ Trans is out again and repairs or changes in the works. Next week I hope the engine/Trans (repaired-replaced) should be ready to go back in. Should not be a problem since this is 3rd + time BUT I can't put hood on by myself so you just might get that call

Thanks
Larry
