I have a 1098 engine  that I am told had a lot of head work by some famous 
builder years ago.  Does this switch make any sense?  The 1098 engine has a hot 
cam and maybe some other goodies as well, so maybe it is best to use it as-is?

I just completed the most onerous job known to man - emptying my basement.  The 
floor is subject to hurricane tides, so I took everything out, put in six 2'x8' 
shelves against the walls, sorted the BE parts by type (duplicates of 
duplicates, condition unknown), and put it all back.  I was hoping to get 
points from my wife, but all I got was, "It's about time!"
