You have a good time Peter, while I sit on my nuts spending money on the engine swap.

How is that project comming along? You settle on exhaust systems yet?

I'll be thinking of you while I burn up some $4+/gal gas!

I have not completely made up my mind but looking at these Hardin Marine Hurricane headers with 2.25 tubes & dry tails. They look nice. Pistons are Diamond, there in and cams should be in today. Coming right along. Also bought a bottle of 30 year old Laphroaig Scotch to settle the nerves.

Here is another shot of the Diamond pistons, The pistons were blueprinted to weigh the same as the take-outs and have gas ports, these guy's really do a heck of a job. They look like a peice of jewelry.
