The Trail is actually not bad at all. If you can do Dicky Bell then Daniel is cake. It was just bad luck with the plug welds. After inspecting the ones that fell out that we could find they had voids in them they were not welded properly and there was almost no penetration.

Last month of Wheeling at URE. Probably won't get over there until next year. I'v got a lot of appointments, birthdays, family stuff not to mention Thanksgiving. I'm also in the process of getting my new PowerDome hood Painted and Installed. I'm going to take the old one off this weekend and prep the new Hood for paint.
