Tonight I installed the battery. Just a couple of steps was all I had time for tonight. I finished fabricating the battery bar, installed it, then installed the little grommet that sits on the side of the box.

Tonight I read through the firewall forward plans and then got started on step 1, making the battery box cover. I trimmed the seal to size then deburred and primed the cover.
Shoulder harness cables and engine unboxing
Tonight I spent a few minutes installing the seatbelt shoulder harness cables. These mount to the seatbelt lugs, which are located at the baggage area rear bulkhead. The cables protrude forward and allow a seatbelt shoulder harness to attach at a location just behind the seats. Small job, but needs to be done.
Then I decided to finally open up the engine box. This has been sitting unopened since the engine arrived in January. It was exciting to see the engine, if only the top portion. I took out the documentation and spent time reading through it.
