Robert, I am assuming from your content that -all- the mods you did, the internal engine work included is accounted for in the approx 130HP figure?? Correct?

Kemah is directly on Galveston Bay, half way between downtown Houston and the beach at Galveston. NASA is about 7 miles away and is in Houston.
