Well I am convinced that you just enjoy taking things apart and putting
them back together again.  

Re the EMPI heads, there are EMPI heads and other EMPI heads.  Mine are
EMPI, with the larger valves, but this version also has more mass - it
weighs a couple pounds more than standard EMPI heads.  I would work with
Steve on getting the right heads for the 2180 as he clearly knows all
about the different heads and which ones are appropriate to get the kind
of longevity I'm experiencing.

Interesting piece in the current "The Experimenter" on high-time
experimentals.  Mike Melville's Long-EZ has 4200 hours, built in 1980. 
Dick Rutan has one with even more hours, but it's retired.  It is called
"Old Blue."  There's an RV-6 with 3000.
