Puddleduck, we are all "encouragable"!
Puddleduck:
We sure want to help so call us encouragable! Besides your a cousin to all of us here in North America! The colonies if you please! If I didn't say something all my relatives in Newcastle on Tyne would storm over here and beat me about the head for standing by while you put it in reverse and sunk! LOL! :)
Besides after reading much here we might get you enthused about building a 4 carb, 444 version of a Tim Kurcs gasser FE Merc 44 cuber some day? It would wake up more than just the UK countryside with open pipes!
