Yes, so far so good. Oil pressure & temps still a bit of a worry, but otherwise the 
engine is great. I'm looking for a Volvo oil cooler (air - oil style from a turbo) - anyone 
have one? The local Volvo place here has a monopoly on parts...

Yes, it was fun. Confidence in the engine improved each day, so by the last day on 
the Coqihalla, I was having fun pushing it pretty hard. The highlight of the trip was 
meeting all the great folks at the WetWesties campout in Leavenworth.
