CraigOutdoors - Thanks for the information this is some thing I've been looking for but was unable to find.

Thank you!!!
No problem. Happy to help. Congrats on the new engine.

What he said. And what he said earlier about pushing it a little bit then going easy throttle for a bit too. I was trying to say that earlier, but he said it better. Thanks for the clarification.
