That is actually a quite a photograph. I love the way that engine leads to the accoutrement of the single life.

sadly there is no seeming end to single life, though on the plus side I do feel better now about the prospect of having my engine in the living room. Now, the fact that I have to figure out how to get it up three flights of stairs on my own, that's going to be the real challenge.

Strip it out of the engine compartment one piece at a time and hoof them up the stairs. You can easily pull and carry a short block. Later, when all is assembled, it will be difficult but down the stairs is easier than up.
