    I called Ricomatic yesterday to get some help with a head gasket and just wanted to let everyone know what a a Great guy he is! Very knowledgeable and very friendly! I wish my friends were more like You Rick! Anyway I'm about to dig into the final assembly of the head (82 750 Maxim) And will let everyone know what pitfalls and insight I discovered after the things turns over. (If it turns over). I'm hoping it wasn't a warped head even though I did a straight edge check and didn;t seem to find anything. Before I put the valve cover back on I'm going to check the clearences with a feeler guage to what what's up there? I'm also going to dunk the front of the exhaust where some rust exists in water and try the electrolysis method that worked so well on the studs and botls last week.
    Thanks again Rick for all your help yesterday, I'll let you know If I run into somthing messed up.

    Always glad to help in any way I can.

    I remember having to spend some time on the phone with one fellow who wasn't too sure how to reassemble his Carbs after cleaning them.

    I have a Mac with built-in Video Conferencing.
    Anybody who wants to Video Conference about a tuning issue can use that resource if you are so inclined.
