    I hope none of you were around minneapolis last night. 2.5 hours to get from the west side to the east on 494, not a salt shaker to be seen. A few trucks had problems getting up the last hill before 94. Lots o fun.

    Not me and so Glad I wasn't there to join your fun. I'm at home starting my rebuild and as I tear it down, I find my camshaft trashed and several cam rollers. My wife is starting to think this is going to cost more than a pretty penny.

    Sorry to hear that. So does that mean you'll have to take it out of her jewelry budget?

    It's been a planned teardown. And I've done one before. I just wasn't expecting to buy a new cam and all the followers. That added 3K to the parts bill.

    I'm little to slow to do it for anyone else as I take 2-3 weeks.

    I hear you, you can plan for everything and still find unexpected repairs.
