And just for the record, I've built race vehicles, custom street vehicles, and street bikes professionally for thirty years. And when I say "built", I don't mean bolted on some aftermarket bumpers, and bug-shields. Ground up, 1000 hp, alcohol-injected, tube chassis, mud buggies. Some of the first straight-axle conversions on bullet-nose Chevys, back in the late 80's, pro-street cars, four-link race trucks, chopped hot rods, and others. Some were pretty damn-aggravating, and most ended up being some damn, sweet rides. So I've learned a few things over the last three decades.

Actually, I had a pretty good amount of respect for you while reading this thread, to stay enthused about a project for an extended period like this. A lot of guys are all gung-ho for a few months, and then weeds start growing around the project because they lose ambition. It takes someone with a lot of motivation to stay enthused about a long-term project. I'd genuinely like to see more progress on your project. There's nothing better than seeing guys learn on their personal street vehicles. That's where the roots of custom building are born. And those who are persistent, will end up with some cool builds, and tons of skills. But just a friendly word of advice; don't assume someone on the other end of the internet doesn't know ****.

Good luck with your project, and keep updating your thread.
Don't ASSume a failure was due to improper install when it has clearly been stated multiple times what actually happened. I wasn't saying you didn't know **** about vehicles, I was saying you didn't know **** referencing your first comment because based on what you posted it appeared you had zero knowledge of what happened.

Wannaride may know a lot about custom builds, but loses all respect by being a jerk.

I wasn't being a jerk, I was making a light-hearted joke about all the off-topic posts, that stretched the guy's build thread out to nearly 60 pages.

As for my original comment, I was merely saying that stacking an aftermarket block, on a factory block isn't always a bad thing.

Geez, lighten up.

And jackedup, in my last post, I was complimenting you.
