If it takes a week so what its been sitting over at mjhowards house for almost 3 months

Motor will be built on Friday most likely and I need to find otu what marks work schedule is it would only take an hour or so to do wht I needed help with then I could do the rest myself if he was at work.

I hope that this time next week it is close to starting up.
