Having a beautiful engine like that and not running it for years at a time is a bit like having a beautiful Lady in your life and not making love to her for years at a time ..... what's wrong with guys like us anyway?!?!   ;c)

When you mentioned the serial number I went to see what mine was but I had forgotten that the identification plate was missing when I bought it, otherwise it is in as-new condition. It's shame as it would have been interesting. They are a great engine for sure.
