    I know how much i hate the off topic stuff, but I'm to darn happy not to post. I made a new head gasket, worked on my engine, took off my buddies engine and installed mine. And althought it was only in the low 40's it started right up with a couple big puffs of smoke and took off down the road. But now that I've got the thing running well I have to wait all the way until spring to really get riding it again since its hard to start when it gets real cold. The Duke [​IMG] [​IMG]
