Thanks for the local eyes offer I'll be taking you up on it this spring/summer/fall/winter/spring........ when it gets going. All kidding about dates aside I'm expecting March or so for the start.
While I'm loath to disagree with Joe Lapine who'll be building the engine for me, I have to agree with Chaplin on the funcition of pre oiling. I called Joe a while back and asked him about using a pre oiler and he didn't feel it was necessary. I respectfully disagree but if I mention it to him it won't be until after the engine is built.
