Ryan,
Sounds like you will be ready... We are going to have an early Spring, at
lest for a while, here in Virginia. Will be in the 70s for the rest or the
week and into next week. I intend to finish building up an engine and put
it in my Yenko Stinger. So it will be nice working in the garage and
outside, instead of really cold conditions.
Good Luck on what you are doing.
