PS, I just got a video camera and shot some footage this mornin of my
beast. If I can figure out how to load it to YouTube or something
similar you can view an auto engine powered homebuilt boring holes
through -6 f skies here in Jackson Hole....
Jim: - - - Right oN! !
Jim: - - - Do something else, for us auto engine junkie admirers. *Some time
when you have the cowl off, give a close up video tour of the installation,
and narrate about some of the pitfalls you have had to avoid, what has
worked out well, and what you want to improve on. *That kind of thing, you
know. *I'm sure you could get creative and make up your own program, but I
can never get enough of poking around a good fire wall forward auto engine
installation, up close and personal!

I have a conditional inspection coming up next month so a video
walkaround and comments on do's and don't is a great idea. What we
learn will benefit the future auto engine powered experimentals and I
want to help out where I can. Now if I can get Steven. P McNicolls to
narrate it, Bertie to do the comedy act and barnyard BOb to direct it
it should get me an Oscar. !! { : - ))....
