Sometimes that's the best part, just driving it.
What he said. Some electronic devices can be harmed if polarity is reversed.
Looks good! I like the color codes
I don't think anyone here has done it. The Sniper series gets good reviews. The 1100 what I would do if I had a six.
I think this is basically the direction I'm going. Since the heads have not been off yet, I don't know what surprises lurk within. It's hard to...

Did you take any pictures?
When I tried to drain my coolant, the petcock refused to open (yes, I was turning it the right way). Now it's leaking; fun times ahead....
