Bill,

I figured out what they were talking about with the "chirp" or whistle
problem when I started looking at the whole problem.  Personally I don't
*care* about a damn chirp if I can avoid spending $4.00 each (plus
shipping) for a plug from Navistar!  I know... I'm a cheap SOB.

I'm going to be doing some porting and reliving work on this area, and for
starters I plan to remove the "hump" in the exhaust port that formerly held
the tube.  Next, I'll radius the edges of the threaded hole from inside the
exhaust port and I'm willing to bet there won't be much of a chirp left!

Thanks for the warning anyway.

John L.
