[QUOTE="painlesstom, post: 292716, member: 10361"] Personally the Engine and pump have been the easy parts so far. lol It's all the details that eat up the time in figuring out the console and making sure everything is going to work right and last. I did get some more finished on the console. I reversed the geometry of the reverse control, and added detents where I wanted them, so Forward - Neutral - Reverse have their own click. Looks very factory, I'm really happy with how it turned out. Finally got my seat and got it mounted on a hinged based I made, so it will fold forward and away from the deck so I can raise it, or the engine cover. I got the engine cover started, the basic shape is done that I will build up and level out with some more fiberglass. This is one areas I don't have much experience with so it's been pretty tedious. Luckily it won't be a load bearing item, only a cover, so I'm confident it will work out just fine. Made up the windshield too, which completed the console. Just need to trim out the back side and it will be finished. [/QUOTE]
