Looks great! You should like the way it flies. Give yourself time to get it trimmed before you get too frisky, tho. I'd like to hear how you get along with the Magnum XLS .36, too. They can be a challenge, but I've seen some guys have awesome runs with them. Monty S. of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, CA, has his working beautifully with a tube muffler.  y1 Steve
