Hurray!

For those who remember, I got my engine after 3 years, thanks to pressure from
Ted Schumacher and hints of legal action.  It appears that the engine is as
advertized, but I haven't removed the head to see if it's been ported and
polished.

I'm now in the process of reshaping a GT6 oil pan to give clearance to the
crank journals.
