I've been without mine for over 2 months now first for a cam swap and now thanks to the dropped valve. Hopefully I'll have the stroker together in time to take it to the track before it snows again. Sounded good for about 10 minutes.

How many milees on the body? Just curious, seeing that the hinges needed replacing.
