thank ya thank ya! might not be 100% done by the meet as i was stupid and tried to tackle too many things at once while i have her all apart but i'm tryin!!! just finished the valve alignment, painting valve covers, swapping crank for option racing 1 and polishing IM. not even gunna attempt the TB until after the meet because of all the surfaces and hose attachments.

i give much credit to other azine members for all the ideas, advice, and support!
