Yeah, pulled all the wires out of the oem harness that runs all the front lights a few weeks back. Lord what a mess of electrical tape. Nasty, sticky mess..

Good luck!

Wire tuck is something I would love to have... But not sure if I am ready to tackle it yet.

This is me! Im terrified that I would end up yanking some wire loose and not realizing until everything was done, and then having to go on a wild goose chase to run down the problem.

I got the crank in, the pump torn apart and cleaned, the pan cleaned, and the pistons hung on the rods. It was about 8:00 PM and at that point, someone brought out the Yamaha Rhino's and then dared me to a hill climb out back. So I'm sorry to say, I got a little distracted. I will go in tomorrow morning and finish it. It will be done late afternoon and will give you a call. It's turning out nice, the bores and the ring end gap are perfect. It should make good numbers. You should talk Andy into porting the heads for you since they are off.

"Someone" My off topic question is did you make it? If you didn't was there an end over end involved?
