I just like keeping all the bolts from rusting by using them once in a while. Im sure it wont be the last time doing this. I really have a good feeling this time though. Its all going together so smoothly this time. Im liking it.

Heat is overrated. I had to move the "Pig of Plastic" to it's new winter home in Perry just before the snow fell. Try no discernible heat with a canvas roof and cold air defrost...
Good luck with the test drive you lucky dog!

Ran her for the first time tonight. Started and ran fine. then saw oil pressure go to 0 and shut it down. Found tons of oil undernieth. Crawled undernieth and the external oil cooler somehow got a hole in it! what the.... Oh well. Ive been hating on that cooler since day one. May perform a cooler delete option and retry another day. Im bushed...
