                          Got the Festy done, and then right back to the shop! Had maybe two hours of run time on it, and it dropped an exhaust valve. Snapped at the lock! Never seen that happen before. Back to drawing board with her... No time for LTD yet. My time has been consumed with a retarded amount of actual work! Couple that with a new girlfriend and still remodelling the house, and, well....
