Do you get the feeling Mike is proud of his new engine.
Hey I'm proud of "our" engine !
We spent enough time on it and if you get a chance look underneath there some really slick custom touches like how the heater boxes are connected to the shroud hoses and some really trick spacers that Mike made to hold the engine gasket off of the hot pipes. Also we went crazy with the braided hoses but I don't think hes going to have any leaks any time soon.
I've done some builds but this was the first one that so many little things had to be gone over and re done. Like Neil Young sang: "Long may you run".
