I have a cloudy memory of something along the same lines as well. But
considering that engine is pretty much scrap in my opinion - I don't
care if it eats up another timing chain. All I want is to get it
running and out to the BBQ... odds are it won't survive that anyway heh.

That is a VERY good idea Jason... only problem is my camcorder doesnt
want to work right, and I havn't hat time (or monty) to try and get it
fixed. I came all the way out to Performance World with the camcorder -
and it wasn't workign then either. Bummer :-(
The worst part is in retrospect I can think of at least half a dozen
simple easy things to do - that would have kept this stuff organized.
Hindsight is 20/20 eh? heh
Thanks anyway!
