Jon,
No, haven't taken it apart yet. It's running great! I know it is fine
though. It idles just as sweet (aside from the lope of the cam), highway
crusing is flawless, no hesitation or missing. Actually when the dyno runs
were made, I had the tech run it up to 6000rpm. No problem; the graphs also
show it. Frank Golembieski came down for the run. He can tell you how well
it performed.

I'm in the middle of replacing my muffler right now. (Man, its hard to get
the pipes off without damaging them.) Need to take the Dak in tomorrow for
a bad sensor, and get my emissions test also. After this, the heads are
coming off for the 3-angle valve cut and deburring. If you want me to look
at anything specifically for you, just let me know. By the way, how are you
making out with your headwork. Have you been delayed also?

Rich, you have stock lifters?? I know you have rods and springs... . have
you taken the motor apart since any of the 6k revs to visibly check for bad
news?
