Thanks, Dan.

I'm not new to engine swapping.  In the '50s I put a '48 Merc flathead
into a Model A, and in the '60s I put a Corvair engine in a VW
dunebuggy, but that was doing it the hard way .... no "Kit".

In my opinion, if one purchases a kit, then it should be complete.  In
that I'd heard that the TiiCo kit needed more than what came with it,
your answer is refreshing.

Mike
