Mike, Morris, Budman, SFCJ, ST,

Thanks. It feels so good to be rumbling around again. Next week will be exactly one year I was without a self propelled Cobra (I did have a deadline after all ). Morris, I will play with the linkage, I lubed the "heim joint" fittings tonight that it uses, but I think I also need to fine tune the adjustments of the rods. Something just isn't right. I also need to tweak the tab that my double throttle return spring is going to.

Morris, I guess with this clutch thing, definitely either use a smaller slave (I KNEW this was going to be an issue after another KMP builder had this issue weeks ago), or I'd go hydraulic throwout bearing. The other thing I did for the sake of purity was the Smith's guages. Wouldn't change that, but there is a lot that needs to be done to make the plumbing go from AN or pipe to British Pipe thread. I still need to get the line from the isolator to my fuel pressure guage to not leak.
