Roger, I enjoyed reading this entire thread today. First, to your comment about choppy idle - fuel injection setups generally tend to smooth the idle on a "choppy" cam compared to a carburetor application of same cam. The fuel metering is more precise and the ability to adjust for variances is vast, so no surprise there. Great numbers.

As so many have responded, you have done the hobby a great service in this thread. You have given a master class in patience, planning for dependencies, being methodical and believing in your ability to just do what was necessary. Call yourself an amateur or hobbyist if you like - many professionals could learn a thing or two about how to do things correctly from your approach. The results are the fruits of your vision, your approach and your resolve. Many will be inspired from this effort and what was formerly too daunting for some to tackle will be transformed into action because of what you shared and how well you documented your journey.

I can't wait to see the finished project! Cheers! Kurt
