Like I said, there are no hard feelings at all. And thanks again for your sweat in getting the motor to me in time to make that trip. I kind of expected something like this, and I guess I'm learning more about my Westy than ever before since I'm doing the repairs myself this time.

At least I've learned that GEX's quality standards don't change across time or engine platforms :-)
