Ok, John - Having been down that road (building for 5 years total), I fully
undestand.  I will say had anybody had "off-the-self" solutions to some of
the problems I encountered (regarding the conversion) I would have
undoubtedly be willing to spring a few buck.  Like about the 4th time I
re-did my oil cooling set up - just so I wouldn't cook the engine in the
air.

Clearly, I'm a bit past that point - otherwise I wouldn't have all this time
to sit and the computer and play with developing equations {:>).  So thanks
for reminding me of what my earlier perspective would have been like.

Best Regards
