<p class="MsoNormal">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. <o:p></o:p></p>

is tremendous.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
