Thanks so much for doing this, Sam. Reading and seeing how a major project like this goes is one of the greatest values of being a member of this club. We all know there is more than one way to do most things, but knowing at least one successful way is a great place to start.
We know you are a man of few words, but don't be afraid to explain some of the things you do and/or the reasons you do them. It will be a good learning experience for many of us and will not insult the intelligence of the more experienced engine builders, either.
Thanks again for setting up this thread!
