Hey Dave! Yep. Right now the priority list is pretty well defined. The engine is my brother's and the ebay ad is his. This realestate issue is coming around full circle down here. I think worse than any other area so we've been taking it easy and now we're simply pulling in loose strings for a bit. How you doin'?

Thats what factory had it at and with cool temps it should be fine. Mine never had problems even with the 140* thermostat. This thing is using the old 390 hp spec cam.
