A mock countdown and liftoff was successfully completed today,
and technicians were preparing for the real thing as well.  The
Number 2 engine was bolted into place yesterday and final electrical
hookups were installed today.  The Numbers 1 and 3 engines will be
installed tomorrow, and NASA hopes to complete the operation by
the end of the week.  When finished, they will seal off the
engine compartment and pump helium through the engines to check
for leaks.
