G'day,

Here's a couple of photos of the oil flow test adapter I built yesterday.

G'day, I'm going through my old emails and bringing them up to date. I visited Tom Pryor in June with a view to using his newly assembled engine to run the testing but unfortunately we ran out of time before we could get the testing done. I contacted Manny as I knew he had an assembled engine test bed he used to test transmissions. He volunteered to help with the testing. Unfortunately when I got there I discovered that my oil filter adapter test fixture would not fit on an engine with OEM exhaust manifolds. Bottom line: I have a Paterson 455 that I need to reassemble and test. I will build an engine run stand and perform the testing when I return to the USA next year. Actually that is a better idea as if something goes wrong and the engine blows up it's MY engine, not someone elses!

Wow, Did that posting confuse me. I thought you were convalescing somewhere in Sydney. Then I realized that I was reading a posting from earlier the year and not the current follow up that you just typed.

Get out of there ASAP.
