I`d much prefer a 302/351 especially with aluminum heads or a Flattie in the T but my plate is too full to do anything about it at present.
Good to hear the shuttle had a good launch and hope all goes well.
I`ve had some very decent luck with the B & S engines, nice to see them still going strong as opposed to the imports.
Good to hear that the race car sold, that`s one less to maintain.
I`ve got a Ford built 7.8 diesel in one of the gravel trucks that I like it better than the 3208 Cat, the 7.8 has much better low end power and it`s alot quieter as well. Fuel wise it`s close between the two, both are fairly decent.

That was a good plan at the time Jack!
Maybe it`ll work out better the next time.

Thanks David.
I think I remember something about it now that you mention it. I`ll keep an eye out for it, see if I can pick up a DVD of it.
