Cool Tony - glad you are making some serious progress and the end is in site... I'd love a ride when you get her finished.

We have a caustic solution cleaning tank that took off most of the oil based crap and then I used a deburring tool and stainless wire brush to remove all the baked on earth, casting flash and aluminum oxide platina.
I looked like I was wearing glitter when I got home yesterday.
At least the engine will be easy to keep clean and I won't have to worry about any casting flash contaminating the oil.

The first time we met at SH I thought we all left in our own cars to go to bennigans that night. All I remembered was us speeding across the I-275 bridge
If I gave you a joy ride earlier that night I forgot about it.
