Sure have, all is well and fits as it should. I'm getting a little impatient with my (elderly) semi-retired engine builder new buddy. He was supposed to drop by last week and was a no show.

I'm wondering if he's disinterested now that I amazingly found an end cap that fits properly and may not require a line bore. Although, he also mentioned wanting/needing to machine the front of the crank and harmonic balancer to support a Woodruff key due to the McCulloch supercharger. I'm gonna bug him again this week.
