All good, thanks for the response! Two heads are better than one so I listen and learn from everyone. I have been avoiding the garage the last couple of days because I have so much other stuff going on. Have to put the tranny pan on and fill it..AGAIN and see if my latest "spring/valve/grinding slots/holes" recheck did anything. Not gonna lie, it's taken the wind out of my sails, so to speak. When I blew up the 3rd engine in 4 years, I parked it for 27 years. Not there yet but the "honeymoon" of having a stocker is quickly wearing off. I have another mustang (stock 86lx with 90,000km's original) that I have raced and could of bracket raced all summer, but I've been focused on the stocker and have been to the track once this year.

All that to say, I'll get back on it, but my motivation to hit the last race of the year in a couple weeks is waning.
