Yes DW,
Jeff and I converse regularly, so I really hope he's listening to us, he's very interested in getting this engine to a good reliable setup, time will tell.
So far, so good, I've given this one a pretty hard time and it is standing up to it thus far.
I had it running at 90%+(up near 100k) for over 30 mins on the weekend, (I'm sure my nearby neighbors are happy about that!) and all seems good, I was trying to see if the aluminum housing would distort or if I could make something let go, but it just didn't happen!! Used a helluva lot of fuel doing it too

Cheers,
Smithy.
