The engine was not the original engine, it’s an L-134 “Go Devil.” It was in good running order so we will use it for the first build, then the plan is to swap it our for an F-134 “Hurricane” engine—the period correct engine. The only things we will need to do to the L-134 is fix two broken manifold studs, one on the exhaust manifold and one on the block and add a correct mechanical fuel pump. The yellow paint was removed in preparation for painting the engine in beautiful Marine Forest Green. Note: Later in Phase III we chose to replace the electrical components as well.
