    Thanks Guys!
    We have had rain for the last few days, but today was beautiful in the 60's. Had to get out there and get it going.
    Dave don't know how you do it! Must have a heated shop!
    Ken I heard it has been beautiful down there, per my in-laws.
    Red what kind of mufflers are you going to use?

    Sounds really good Steve. Always a moral booster when you can fire them up and hear them run. Makes all those long days and nights worthwhile.

    Thanks lamin8r. Yep need new tires next!
    Don thanks, you've been an inspiration with the words of encouragement along the way.
    I only started it for a few seconds. Next is cam break in and then fine tuning, to get it on the road!
