    Yeah couldn'tv asked for a better turnout. Engines all sweet, had slight detonation in one cylinder due to the ceramic top of a spark plug falling into it, but that's about it. Can't wait to take all the bits down to Harris engines and get them to start on it. Their prices are great

    Was an enjoyable Huey, food drinks great sounds like I should have stayed. Even got to see a naked engine and how it all comes apart very interesting.

    Top job to all involved. What's with the Silver Z in the street with its front end hanging off?
