Two hundred shake down miles on it today. I've a small short in the wireing somewhere near the coil. It lost power on the way home today, so I pulled over & pushed on the wires to the coil & pushed on the leads going to the coil & fired right back up, so I've got to check on that when weather permits. There is a small oil leak around the valve cover gaskets. I've got the metal ones from Mike Forte. I guess they may be a little off cause it's leaking on the drivers side. As soon as the weather gets nice again, I'll get my butt under the hood & fool with it some more. All in all, it was a great day! The day started out 42 degrees & me headed to work at 6:00 am with a perma-grin on my face all morning. The day ended at 8:00pm with me safe back at the house without any major catastrophes!
