The Book of Wayne, pg 182... "5 hours to go"...
Just for you guys:
"At this point, you have completed the assembly of your long block... You should feel quite proud of yourself -- the hard part is over... From this point on, its smooth sailing." I often doubted that I'd ever read those words (started 4 years ago). I'm so happy...  YEAAAAA!!!!!But, lots to be done yet...

The next step is the hardest. Not having a stroke when you first fire the thing up.

Also, I meant to mention that I do intend to write up my whole saga with "Twenty seven eight-by-ten colour glossy pictures with circles and arrows, And a paragraph on the back of each one" (actually it's more like 400...
. Lots of good info.
