damn butt dyno...is it lying? and header install thoughts...

[roccit_53 at hotmail.com (C Boyko)]

Well, you have "Mr chick magnet MkI" to worry about too, and Josh C, but 
they have those lumpy idle cams. I'll be delighted if Klaus manages half 
what the headache has (SO not gonna happen...). (You have us down for some 
pulls, right?)
And you know what my face will look like when you run yours. For those who 
have never gone to a dyno day, don't do it, it is very addictive. I just 
love the sound...
Cathy
