Too much is just about right.

Unfortunately, no. I had a problem with the engine. Instead of fixing it,
I decided to bump up the Fontana aluminum engine build which had been on
hold due to all the overtime I was (and still am) working. My 4340 forged
crank has been on back-order going on 8 months now. Grrr. At least Kelly
got the first test castings back from the foundry a few weeks ago, so the
independent runner EFI intake will be ready when the engine is. In the
meantime, I've been tooling around in the TR8 convertible.
