Thanks guys for the well wishes.

The JBL is just about ready. First foray out of the garage for a shake down it was mis-firing badly, and I ran out of gas in front of my house after a four block round trip. Oh yeah and puked up a bunch of radiator fluid since the bottom hose was loose....how did that happen?

Current delay is I suspect a gremlin in the new MSD TFI distributor so got it replaced. My consultant Richard Parker agrees it is the dizzy at fault. Will try it out with the new one today. If that fixes the mis-firing then next step will be getting it registered/inspected etc.

Geez I know how jshel1 feels now..... about being 95% done for months;-)

Yeah Larry first time I saw that Daytona coming at me near my own neighborhood I turned my head around so fast I almost spilled my coffee. I thought "Who Dat been drivin' dat Daytona...."
