Oh, sorry, I missed your post on your 'ladder mishap'. I do that quite often but instead I jam by back up but not fall.

Us 'old folks' gotta be more careful.
Glad you are healing.

Went back to measure the fin height, on my Army and Marine medals, I'm surprised with the results. I only took 2 measurement on each as I didn't want to accidently mark the medals. At low point on the Army medal, it measures 4.67mm, on the high point of the fin, it measured 5.63. That makes the fin side 20.5% higher. The Marine medal, on the low side was 4.97, the higher fin side was 6.90 That's a whopping 38.8% higher!

In my younger days, I built a chevy small block 350CI small block 4-bolt mains, I bored it out 30 over (wanted to go 60 but didn't want cylinder wall flex issues., a Crane 272 degree cam an edlebrock dual 4 barrel aluminum intake, 2 Holley 750 double pump carbs, Polished camelback heads and 1.5inch short pipe hooker headers on dual exhaust (with a crossover just behind the flange)

all built up in my living room..
I installed this into my 1978 Pontiac Firebird in front of a turbo-TH350 4 speed tranny meshed with a 4:10 Positraction diff.
