Wow, nice job, were the internals rebuilt? Head work, cam, pistons, rings, etc? Looks great, can't wait to hear more about how it runs compared to the 3A.

i put a 4a in my first terc and i honestly didn't notice any difference. for me, the weber was the single biggest 'bang for your buck' performance upgrade.
