			I just thought I'd vent some frustration.  Yesterday I was putting in my chain tensioners looking forward to buttoning up the long block.  On the left tensioner, I'm tightening the nut with my torque wrench and it just keeps turning and turning - the stud pulled out.     Oh well, moving on...

| Registered |  Yup, pulled the chain housing out last night and put in a timesert.  It sure is good to have a friend with a mill in his garage.  Joe
