Driving home I realized there is a small chance I'll be allowed to pull the engine in the existing garage.....so first measure the hood clearance then start the engine pull process. I really want to see inside that cylinder.......

Ugh, sorry man. What a pain! It'll be a masterpiece when it's all done.

The dynomation length stack would stick up a bit more than I have

I think I could build something where the stacks cross....it would probably still want a little more hood clearance but that might be a good compromise. I'll try to get it laid on in CAD and see what it might look like.

It's beach week which I really don't enjoy, but it think I'll pull the engine when I get back. The piston will take time to get so I want to be sure it's just the one cylinder and get the order placed.....its still possible that it drives on the road thid year if i can get the parts

Way back when I was putting in the seats I realized I had 20 and 4...same part numbers but the 4 mic'd smaller. I called, they told me I was nuts but I ordered 4 more and they matched the other 20. After the seats were installed and Iwas picking up I could only find 3 of the small ones and had 1 correct to spare....and no way to find the small one.....but it should be ok......I suspect I've found it.
