Engine Arrival

06 Apr 2005 Engine Arrival

Update 20210918: I didn’t install the Eggenfellner Subaru engine, so any post that references that can be ignored or used as a cautionary tale about how to avoid wasting many years and $50k.

Got my engine today. Here are some pictures.

Another shot from another angle. The truck driver actually thought I was taking a picture of him. Sorry, dude, you’re not my type. Besides, I’m married!

The propeller. If that’s not the strangest box you’ve ever seen…

Proud owner of an Eggenfellner Subaru 2.5XT supercharged engine!

Here is a view down the box. I removed one large box that had the spinner and the other propeller hardware so you could see the engine.

I ran out of battery at about this point. Also, I was getting pretty eager to watch the installation videos.
