Proper engine rebuild etiquette....

 I made a bracket in order to mount the motor on an old car engine stand I had lying around.  Now I am ready to tear into the motor and start replacing gaskets and seals.  And painting and polishing different parts. This is the first time doing a DOHC CB750 motor so should be fun.  I also have a CB900f waiting in the wings. This will be much better then when I did the CB350, I had that motor on a bench and kinda rolled it around to work on it.  It was about half the size of this pig and still pain.  This will be much better.  As I side note I discovered that I am getting older as I started muscling this sucker around and discovered today that I toasted my back.  Gonna need one of those lift chairs from the old folks home real soon!
