As a matter of fact I am! He loves builds like this and he was an outstanding resource for all things tuning, especially carburetors (which know very little about).
Here is the interesting part. He runs an automotive and motorcycle repair business (successful I might add) and could charge for any parts/advice he could share with me. I tried several times to offer to pay (he would send out jets, emulsion tubes, high speed needles gratis). He would have none of it. He is a real standup guy, I owe an awful lot of the success of this project to Steve.
Towards the end I put together a box of things he might need (spin-on oil filter adaptor kit, one of three gold anodized units I had, an extra bevel gear case and other odds and ends) and sent them to him out of the blue. He deserved at least that much.
That reminds me, I haven't talked to him in ages - I need to give him a call, thanks for the reminder!

I love that - thanks for sharing. I came across his posts since I used to own an '86 Connie and he is quite a well known guy in that community and extremely passionate about the bike. Awesome to hear you guys could work together to make some pretty sweet projects.
