What if the "Hokey Pokey" is what it's really all about?

Take the pump back to him, tell him to do it right! Don't let him weld it until you check the clearance to the bottom of the pan.... Originally Posted by BBMonte

Ok gang. It's been awhile. With everything that was going on taking care of my mom's affairs and making a few needed mods to the Healey, it was June before anything really got rolling on this...
