Very sharp looking engine. As usual you have out done yourself. I have enjoyed watching this come together. Thanks for the great build log as well.  :D :D

Though I have not enjoyed watching this come together, I'm probably the one paying most frequent visits to the build thread.  Will manage to have it on paper, someday.
What a great work!

Awesome job.
