Re: Engine Swap

Looked heavily into a 350 swap for the current 318's, in the end decided to stay with the 318's. Motor mounts, bell housings all the re positioning verses old out and new in was certainly the path of least resistance.

Re: M owners in Georgia

Mines on Lanier, about 35 miles northeast of Atlanta, was fine as of Sunday. As of this writing mid-late morning Wednesday that could be another thing, very strong storms all through North Georgia.
