Great Dean, let's all get together. Nothing significant happening on this end. Finishing up the installation of the engine....because of a cracked header! (smiles) can't get those dang things out without pulling the motor. Had an oil leak I was chasing too, so no biggie!.

On the miles, not sure when it cracked. I just undid the wrap right around the time I met you and found the leak in the exhaust. I had taken the motor out and put it back in without undoing the wrap (stupid, I know). Finally, pulled it all off and there was the crack. But the main thing to come see is what it did to the sidepipes. You should come take a look. Looks like sand blast pits all through it with course blast media and took all the coating off of it. So to make a long story longer, the car is about a 94 model as best I can figure and it had 14K miles when I got it. I am pretty sure the crack was there when I bought it and I did not know.
