Well Ant you are looking at like 10-12 Hours of prep work, Pressing in the new bearing, and cleaning of the Rotors. File fiting all the new seals, man it is a good work out LOL. But puting the motor together only took like 45mins. And Michael that is a ACT 12pound steel, 245 turbo flywheel.

Actually build time isn't sh$t. It doesn't take any time to put one together. It's all the countless hours you spend cleaning, prepping, porting, yada, yada. I probably have a good week and a half in just porting those irons and housings, not including wire wheeling, shaving the sparkplug hole eyebrows, cleaning, etc.

Old girl still sounds healthy. Needs better exhaust, but hey, I'm just glad to see my porting being spread around. Now everyone can share the love

Yous guys. I was thinking about us putting the meet off till the 15th. That would give us a little more time this month. Kinda screwy with the 1rst day of the month starting on a Sunday. Let me know what you guys think.

BTW, the engine looks awsome Long.

+1 on that. That 12A bridge sounds phenominal! It's like it pulls great, then he hits the gas and it pulls even harder!

Anyone going to respond about moving the meet to the 15th.
