Guess you took it to a shop, sorry I didn't catch you sooner, might have had pushrods here.

when you get your boat going come by the windmill and have a beer. That's my brothers old boat and I was there when you bought it. I've been wanting to see that boat on the water.

Glad to help. I still think it's pretty darn funny that you have a GM pushrod in your Ford now! See you tomorrow.
