    I did...and Tony is coming over Saturday morning around 9am to help re-install the motor. You are invited too if you want to do some wrenching. BTW, do either of you have any arp thread sealant and arp thread lube? I need some to install the head.

    I just checked Gene. Looks like I'm out of lube. The sealant I have is permatex and it looks really old.

    :1st: No sweat Gene! Well quite a bit of sweat actually, but it was fun. It's always more exciting working on someone elses stuff! Anyhow, get out there and win some more races for the Maverick guys.
