The fix for that was to drill out the holes so they could be bolted together and not induce a bind. First one in, and amazed with how fast it goes up and down. I may not need to do the relay mod after all!

2nd door, everything was going really well until the duct tape I was using to hold up the glass let go, and it came down quick and broke the glass. Anyone know where to source factory dark tinted glass?

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
