Nobody can make him do it. I'm amazed and glad that he volunteered to write up articles that must have taken considerable time and effort. You should post on that thread that you look forward to the next installment, and suggest topics you'd like to see covered.

Hi SoCalMini,


Life got in the way! Between my regular job, my cylinder head porting project, tax season, and a few other responsibilities, I just haven't taken the time to write it, as it will be quite extensive. Hope to get to it in the next couple of weeks. Maybe I'll start on it this weekend.


Cheers!
