Scott,

How about 6:40 at Starbucks. I try to let the neighbors sleep until 6:30 on Saturdays. I was taking to my neighbor the other day and he said last Saturday it shook his whole house when I started up.

No engine removal, Tony Oddo of T.O.E. Performance, replace 3 thread inserts in the heads and replace a broken rocker shaft. Could have been real bad, but luckily I was close to home. He used a product called Timeserts...really pretty amazing fix. The major automotive manufacturers use them. He put hotter plugs in it and it just screams.

It's nice to have an engine builder drive and tweak your engine.

I know Porsches have been using them for years and years.
