Rich, you'll have to cleanse the "stick" on your manual truck
with the ashes from a red hefer or large fry to go, do a small
dance on one foot around the dak while holding a Micky D's
burger. If you're lucky, the "Stick Gods" will look the other
way. ;)

Seriously, good luck! Sounds like a nice engine in the making.

Thanks Bob,
It would be nice to hear from some of the others. You are the only person
to reply. Thanks! This auto stuff is new to me. It is going to take some
re-educating to get up to speed on this one. I'll do a research based on
what you've told me.

On the Dakota scene, I'm going down to pick up my heads tonight. They
tanked, glass-beaded, and pressure tested them. No cracks; yes!!! I'll be
porting and polishing this weekend, then back to the shop to re-grind the
valve seats and back-cut the valves. The new cam should be showing up first
of next week. Also need to squeeze in a little more polish and paint. Have
a good weekend. I'll keep in touch.
Rich
