I have no idea what happened to them. With the vitriol you and your bunch were spewing at that time I figured it was something done on that end. The last several times I tried to post, that was the case. I would post, see it on my page, but no one else could. I asked several other people if they could see my posts but no one could. I was never "banned", just blocked, I figured. Water under the bridge as far as I'm concerned. That was another lifetime ago.

I guess the tech discussion is pretty much dead here. Mike, Scott has posted some good info here, why try to chase him away?? I don't get it. It doesn't sound like you.. It sounds like from bobs s mouth to your ear and then here. Shame that one person is putting a wedge between friends and any good discussion here. I'm having some issues, I posted them on another site <sigh >

SB you know exactly what happened to his posts don't play dumb, think Borgie

Youporn doesn't count :grinser010:

Would that be like your "bunch" ? Or was it just a big coincidence that you rejoined OSO under a different user name right after offshorexcursion posted his epistle, that he refused to reply to and sent all his buddies to speak for him, including you?

and just FYI, if your posts vanished from OSO, it means that a Mod or Admin made them go away. I'm sure they had a good reason.

Unless he is a Mod or Admin here, which he isn't, how would he know that?

That's easy.

Redline 5W-30 for everyone. And then go mental when everyone doesn't agree with you.

Too bad you had to omit the rest of my comment when you quoted me but I will re-state:

So, you think that thread was all kevins "buddys" making stories up about marine kinetics bob? I seem to recall quite a few people speaking out there, some whom i know, dont know kevin whatsover.

It was deleted , which i find funny. Did the thread about randy garciga get deleted ? Or the other hundred threads of an unhappy customer speaking out in public?

Maybe it somehow violated oso's handbook. Might be time to double check the rules, and restart that thread. Are the people allowed to speak, or is this pre wwii germany?

Bolted a set of Aluminum Merlin III's to a pair of Gen 6 515's a few years ago. ARP didn't have a part# for the latest version of those heads so it took some piecing together to get the head bolt lengths correct. I did not have this issue when bolting similar heads to my mark IV 454's a year prior since the threaded holes went down into the jacket.
