All Right Grippy!!!!! The next deployment will go a lot better, now that you have that off your mind. It's been a LONG haul, but you/we learned a lot. Thanks from all of us!!!!!

oh it kicks ***!
Holy moly Grip! That shot of the engine bay is most impressive 
She's very purdy! The anticipation is building.
I only wish I could be there when you hit the key for the first time.
I want to be one of the first to congratulate you on a spectacular build. I can't wait to hear it run! Go Grippy go!

I'll take it easy for the first couple hundred miles, heat cycle it, gradually increasing load.

Uh, just looked. This build thread on 11/212006!
Wow. I didn't realize it has been 1.5 years!
I was thinking a year tops. I would have already burned mine if a project took that long.
