Hey Jim,

You told me to let you know when I have finished stripping down the 13b to a short block. This is just to inform you, no rush at all.

Do we just invite ourselves? Or wait for Jim to invite us my PM?

I'd like to watch an N/A build, but I guess a turbo short block vs NA short block are basically the same process, right?

I have a long list of members wanting to rebuild engines and or attend sessions, please bear with me as I only have so much time to offer. Unfortunately I've had family matters to attend to and this has put our sessions back 3-4 weeks.....i'll try to get to everyone.

Thank you for the clarification, Jim. I can appreciate how family matters take priority. Honestly, I'm in no rush. What you are offering is a noble thing and a great experience for others. I would love an opportunity to participate, when possible. I just wanted to be sure that I was on the list of observers, at some point down the road.
You are doing a wonderful thing here; nobody wants to see this end any time soon.
Keep going, please.

(So are you sending a PM to those invited when it's their turn to attend?)

Not a problem, what you are doing is a good thing. I'm sure everyone here agrees that family comes first. I'm in no way trying to pressure you. Whenever it'll happen doesn't matter to me, I just wanted to make sure I don't miss out on a great learning opportunity. Thank you in advance for even offering this.

Many thanks to Jim for generously donating his weekend time to mentor my 12a rebuild this past Saturday, and also to the guys in the group whose participation made it all progress so much faster.

Now go check out that awesome rotary sound as I turn the engine over!

Hey, if you do this again I might drop by to watch as it would be nice to see someone else build an engine, and it's been a while since I've hung out. If my schedule agrees of course.



All times are GMT -5. The time now is 02:25 AM.
