Mechanical help in Baltimore for a '66 300

[Jonathan Sacks <jwsacks@xxxx>]

Hi all, 

Strange request. I'm looking for someone who might be
able to serve as my mechanical guide in Baltimore this
weekend, when I hope to drop in my newly-rebuilt 413
engine back into my '66 300. 

Up until this point I've been working with a very nice
older gentleman who unfortunately, about a month ago,
contracted a spinal infection. He has been unable to
continue on a normal work routine and as a result the
final stage of the work has come to a halt. 

The engine has been rebuilt by L&M motors in
Baltimore. The carborateur and radiator have also been
rebuilt at other shops in the area. All are painted,
primed and ready to drop in. All neccessary gaskets,
mounts, wires, hoses, kits, etc. have been purchased
and stand ready for installation. The only thing I'm
missing now is the most critical ingredient for
successful engine work: knowledge.

My hope is this...I'm 32 years old, mechanically
inclined but moderately experienced when it comes to
work on the car. I am however very capable when it
comes to doing the heavy lifting and bolt tightening.
What I need now is someone to stand over me and say do
this/do that. With proper preparation and my brother
as help, I'm fairly certain the whole process won't
take more than a day. 

I'm proposing to execute this engine drop-in this
Saturday, November 3rd. I should be able to take a day
off work on Friday to make doubly sure everything is
ready to go for the big day. I will of course be more
than happy to generously compensate in cash on the day
any engine doctor who can make this unusual house
call. 

Does anyone have the least bit of interest in this
endeavor, or know anyone that might? 

Eagerly 300ly,
Jonathan Sacks
