Hey Tommy,
  I spoke to Doc Abe and he is DEFINATELY still in for the B-100 so we'll have a great guy to represent the team. 
   
  Cornhuskers rule!

Well I am out for the B-100. Totally bummed out but I also am not
running around two days before I have to leave either. 

Getting ready to call Doc Abe to tell him I'm out. To make a long
story short it isn't the distributor gear as I initially thought it
would be. Soon as we pulled the dist. gear we realized that wasn't the
problem. Just to be on the safe side we replaced the gear, but couldn't
set timing. Dick Drenske who came over to give me a hand tonight
replacing the gear and checking timing and everything else out believes
as does the engine builder there is a good chance its the distributor
centrifical advance and/or springs. Unfortunately I gotta be at work
tomorrow at 6am and don't have time to pull it all together or even get
the distributor to the shop.

I'll wait for two days to cool down, count to 10 and get the
distributor to a shop to check it out. If its just the distributor I get
off cheap. Still bummed though.
