Ben,

That little tirade was funny! It was intended to be funny - right? In any
case, that's a nice cleanup on that engine and a good photo.

You said you weren't going to post in detail the installation, but enough to
get the picture. Don't know if you have thought of this before, but I would
be willing to bet there are a lot of guys, myself included, who would be
willing to pay money for a well documented conversion installation CD. Food
for thought, maybe?? Since you are doing the work anyway, now may be the
time.

Regards,

John Rodgers

BTW - any ideas about how much that Subie engine weighs compared to the
Wasserboxer?
