[TPR] Checking the specs,Asa's current Mach I engine

[Asa Jay Laughton]

Russ,
You've built great engines for Dennis and he has nothing but good  
words about you and your engines.  I respect that, and your  
experience.  I'm just a layman  wrenching on the engine in my garage.  
I have education but -no- experience like yourself, so I'm turning a  
hearing ear to you.

Believe me, if I had the cash in hand, I'd be taking Dennis'  
recommendation and just buy a stroker from you.  :)
But then I'd lose out on all the fun of doing it myself.

I do appreciate your insight.
Asa Jay
