Hey Richie,
Brothers did most of the work on the motor. We're waiting on the header (too long) so we can get the oil lines done and then off to the dyno. We'll be finishing up the "rolling" pan this weekend, then start the cage and seatmount fitting. It's going slower than hoped for, but.......

Thanks, Jason..We actually just had it balanced there so we could start the seatmount and seat placement. Hopefully we'll get the last black powdercoat run back today and get the motor ready for the dyno early next week. We're behind our original schedule, but things are "rolling" along.
