Thanks very much for a great breakfast and setting this up with Ted, Greg. And the donuts, Tom. I think. We all had a great time, and while I was disappointed that my engine's lean conditions necessitated a shutdown at 5K RPM, I learned what is necessary to get ready for another visit to Tony's for some final tuning. I also learned why they call them things "turkey pans." After I remove it, along with the Holley 850, I'll do some jet changes and get the engine running optimally before reinstalling it. Some of this "original" crap, while looking cool, can be a pain in the ass. And thank you, weather god, for giving us a beautiful day [at last]! Rich
