Thanks Tim. Put 50 more miles on it yesterday (top down and 40°) and I’m
very pleased that it runs better than ever. Having cam bearings installed
made a tremendous difference in oil pressure-the lack of which prompted the
engine rebuild. I’m concerned, however, that there are no leaks anywhere,
which doesn’t seem normal.
Thanks for your note.
