Not sure what to to. Will look into this as well as some other things when I receive the rest of my ordered items to complete the build. Christmas in addition to delays are making the shipments go very slow. Will probably be another to-three weeks before maiden.

BTW - how is the single tail push rod guide working out? I've been thinking about adding one more.
