Dude, after the surprisingly non-issues identified maiden voyage of my truck I have been on the edge of the seat waiting to see what happens with yours !! I am sorry you had so much trouble with that motor, but it looks like you rebounded with exceptional determination from it.
I may be in the envy zone again here real soon if this turns out the way I think it is going to for you !!
Thanks for stopping by my build, your encouragement means a lot
