Re: Hershey Haul 2023
Nice haul to all. Very jealous of the Sportlite with tag. Was going but had to cancel at the last minute. Would have been a race to the light. Good finds.

Re: Machine Shop
Try Schwalms in Strasburg,PA. Put your engine on a pallet and ship it to them if they are not too far out.Sometimes they have exchange engines. They are in Hershey for the show right now.
