If you are really heart broken over the gas mileage I'd be more than willing to trade you my 72 head with hydraulic lifters from my GT for your engine head. Or just be happy you'll have a hot little gt when it's all done!

Best of luck! If you ever make it up to Salem let me know I'd like to see your GT.
