If you had xray vision!

I hope you're picking Dad's brain so you can "carry on oh wayward Son". By the looks of the way he "meticulously" does things, "he's never done this before" = not. You're one lucky guy to have a Dad that knows what's what. Pick that brain young man. Can't wait to hear it run.
He's got 40 years of engine building knowledge up there. Meticulous,that he is nothing get's left undone. Lucky yes,big shoes to fill maybe that's why I'm a finish carpenter with a car hobby. I can't wait either,always wanted a motor that my Dad had built.It's going to be great putting this together with him.
