Mike - I have a good case that I can send you (or your machine shop) for free but I’m headed to Maine tomorrow and won’t be back until Wed. Sorry about the timing but it’s yours if you want it. Mark

Well I have to give Jorge at European Motor Works a big thumbs up! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif)
New case opened for 102s, lined bored, and the oil galley plugs drill and tapped is on the way! |

Good luck with the assembly Dave Don't know my build is worth the Gods attention but someone is definitely trying to piss me off! The support I get here is what makes me want to keep pushing forward instead of quitting. |
