Message	Use a flat file to deburr and resurface all mounting surfaces. Before bolting together, wipe with clean hand. Even a single metal chip can cause problems in a build. Good Luck Zeus...You have plenty of friends here and there is not one thing on a Z that someone hasn't done successfully before. Gordo
