[SEL] Re: Rotary & Impulse Mags and a big Wahoo!!!!!!!

[Richard Strobel]

Yes it did Ed.  High 5's goin' all over the place.  Nothing looks broke and 
only cleanup is needed.  It does have a snowmobile muffler on it, but looks 
pretty good IMO.

  This is our first Barn Freshe and will only get cleaned up and shined...oh 
and a decent friendly cart built.  Gotta figure out some cooling also.  They 
did come with a fan and radiator on some models, but will probably go with 
some kind of convection gizmo..it does have a belt driven water pump.

  Just read where a Universal GenSet went to North Pole with Byrd.

  Thanks Ed
Rick
