One to be proud off even if memory remembers the trouble of getting it to run as you desired, stronger for a while  :ThumbsUp: :ThumbsUp: :ThumbsUp:

Oh and I should say nice runner from my point of view and good looking too - what's not to like  :cheers:

Outstanding job Craig! The finish and performance hopefully make up for all the issues you had during construction. It's nice to see a different engine on the forums.

That's great, both looking and running.

As was said above, despite the problems, it's one to be proud of.

Thanks for all the posts on this.
