Actually, not much to report.

1700 miles and still no issues. I ran the engine 650 miles today. I'll be coasting the last 300 miles tomorrow.

Day 1 - I kept the speed around 70.

Day 2 - the speed crept up to 72.

Day 3 - I kept finding myself at 78. The engine really likes the area over 4200 rpm. I had it up to 86 at one point. accelerating from 73 while going up hill. Personally, I don't like that lack of stability over 72 but I just wasn't paying attention.

My next post will have the link to the site.

Signing off from Benton Arkansas.
