Rehi Sohl,

Well, I've snagged a 2.0 bottom end and the jokers in town said they'd
have to port/polish the head by hand since the closest Extrude Hone
doo-hickey is in Cali.  Guess I'll go home to Los Angeles to get it
done, these idiots are pissing me off!  While I'm there, I was planning
to have Velocity open up my throttle body.  I know my bottom end will
suck but hey....I've got to run from the law somehow :).  As to when
this will all transpire, I haven't a clue...time is tight at the job but
I'll keep you updated.  I also wanted the 2.1 set up and I may go that
way but I'm not sure.  Depends on what parts I can hustle in LA :). 
Later!

Steph
