[T3] Crate stuff is back!

[Keith Park]

Rimco sent the stuff back, They cut the case 20 under, savered it, but
unfortunately they cut the deck down where the cylinders rest, I did NOT
want that done, I don't have time to mess with CR or valve train geometery
etc. on a bone stock build.  Ive got to call them and see if I can find out
how much they took off, it didn't need anything taken off and I don't think
they cut much but..

They took the crank down .010, that looks fine, rods are bushed, cylinders
look good, there are a couple slightly low spots but they thought that was
OK and I really do want to use the originals again.

The only thing that really bummed me out is my coveted triple-walled Agilent
Scope box disappeared!  They sent the stuff back in TWO boxes, and the
shipping for the two was $$$

&#$^#@!!!

And I cant get those big boxes anymore.  Oh well!

I do need to get another cylinder stud together, I stripped the threads on
one getting the head nut off, these are the early thick ones (10mm?)  anyone
have an extra they can spare?

I want to get the case together this fall and then I can do the rest in the
spring.
