Getting ready to re-install the engine back in my bus.

Is it better to have all of the engine tins installed on the engine before I put the engine in, or is it just as easy after the engine is installed? I still have some wiring and brake lines etc to finalize as well, so I am thinking I may have a little extra working room in there without the tins.

The left rear tin with it's hump is easy to remove, making removal and installation of the engine easier. I also remove the coil, oil filler pipe, and my centermount progressive carburetor.
