Thanks. Murphy isn't a permanent resident in my neighborhood, but I know he has been a "Renter" several times... Will keep the idea of degreeing the cam in mind as I proceed. Just have so many more things left on my list right now. But, please don't interpret this an not appreciating your help. You've been a wealth of knowledge to date...
Have a couple water leaks and an electrical (under dash item) bug(s) to address next after I spend a little more time with the break-in and tuning... Also, need to replace the starter which means pulling the driver's side header/exhaust and steering linkage. Installed a remanufactured starter from Pep Boys and the thing sounds horrible; like it could die any minute...
