Shop called today and informed me they made mistake on case and bored it too big (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)

So now I am out of cases and only hope seems to be Jorge at European Motor Works.

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

That offer is so meaningful! But Jorge at European Motor works seems to have one ready to ship tomorrow.

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!

Mark - you da bomb! Stop by Dover, MA on your way up to or back from Maine, you can get a sneak peak at Grey Matter.

Mike.
Sorry to see your troubles. Seems like the 914 Gods are testing your resolve. Have you tried any sacrifices appeasement rituals?? Good luck with the assembly

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.

Actually true! Up 0400 and started building. Just our case together for first test fit. How to have PCs installed by dinner.

Going really slow just to be sure.
