Aint that a hoot. You posted your query at the same moment I posted a prelim write up in the Itinerary...

Went swell.

Resolved some unresolveds. Confirmed some open questions. Tucked away some morsels of truth that will come in handy when I am next deciding what I am going to do to "make things better".

More details when I write up the details in the IAC visit thread.

And, for those prurient minds that are peeping these words I will add that Colin really knows how to twist a nut, how to apply several types of lube, can gently open the tightest orifice, and can get yer motor revin' up when he puts the hose in his mouth.

I'll let y'all ponder that fer a spell.
So it all started when I wanted to get better gas mileage....

Oh yeah, you think that's bad check out the "cam selection thread". Tell me that's any less confusing....
