Sounds great!
Always good to hear a flathead wake up after a long slumber!

Thanks.. It is always a little nerve racking when you first start an engine. But this being my first flathead had me on the edge of my seat.

Congrats! I'm hoping to experience the same thrill in the next couple of months when I wake my Lincoln V-12 from its extended slumber.
