Good luck to the wife, Tommy.

The car is alive! Finished buttoning it back up today and got the new plug wires put on. Took it for a test drive. Holy crap it's a beast! Still not done, yet, I know that. There's more in it, and the tune isn't 100% yet. But it's getting there

Good news. How did you make out with the valve adjusting that your builder forgot to do?

I don't think they forgot to do it. All the valve were adjusted the exact same. They were all loose the same amount, which was very little. I think the difference was the builder adjusted them on a motor with no oil, just assembly lube, etc, and I did it on a motor that had already been run. The burnt plug wire I found had more to do with the lack of power. But it's idling better and rips the tires now.
