Well, I must admit I wasn't really expecting that, but I am glad to hear 
the exercise wasn't in vain, at least not yet.  I needed some 8V gasser 
practice anyways,  the last 500 or so timing belts I've done have been 
on diesels, I was starting to forget how easy the gas ones are...  And 
as for that #4 rod bearing, maybe next year we should plan on replacing 
them eh? :)

No worries, the bill is in the mail... :) :)
