Well, it wasn't as easy as I'd hoped, but I got out the end of the tube. I ended up pulling the freeze plug between 5 and 6. The tube end dropped down in between cylinders 5 and 6. I hooked it with a bent piece of mechanics wire fished in through the freeze plug hole, and then my wife was able to hook it with the mechanics claw through the water distribution tube hole. All soldered in, and now the tube is fully installed.

I also put the water pump on, and masked off almost everything I don't want to paint.

I'll post some pictures after I paint the block.

I painted the front engine mount black, based on a restore car I saw at the PAC show, but now I see pictures over at Wade's workshop that his front engine mount is green.I guess I'll do black for now, and change it if I need to.
