Patsy lamented that fixing between my ears is a lost cause.

Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
Assembling is easy it’s getting all the parts to like each other is the time consuming part.

Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
I enjoy the documentation part of the build. Checking piston to valve clearance at different installed C/L. Sometimes moving the crank sprocket to a different Advance or Retard does not show up as advertised on paper.

Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
A weekend off from being a grandpa. I get to work on my stuff. First thing is finalizing my disassembly notes, I failed to do that last time and it almost cost me an unplanned disassembly.

Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
During the mock up portion of the build I always give myself an NHRA tear down. Placement of the indicator observing straight, perpendicular, and parallel is very important to have the lift check correctly.
