You sure your not confusing him with CPR class??

or..... like Brian Orlandi for the longest time was being told the issues were everything BUT Bob's combo, so... if he can convince Orlandi he was the issue, how many others would talk to Bob and be swayed into thinking the builder was the issue.... never Bob.. can't be.... I was into my builds too far when things started coming out, had to go with it as the cash was not there to start over, you guys see where that got me... I am upset but very glad I found it now and Joe made me look...

Can't fight now we pretty much know that all the fighting was Bobs fault lol

really makes you think he's a builder....

Well unfortunately for you , but this has been an extremely informative thread , and has gotten folks back on the same page! Maybe we should all toss a few bucks your way just because!:cool-smiley-011:

Ya be thankful you caught it now cause I have a strong feeling you wanted to be talked into cruising through another season or so and wait til refresh time to go after the extra power left on table. I simple dial indicator can be pretty useful finding valvetrain issues also. Then again many applications can be more time consuming to pull valve covers than intakes. No lifter valley screens also made very quick to identify lobe issues without pulling rockers and lifters.

Lol yaaaa well it sucks, it's part of the hobby... I spent a lot, learned a lot, still boated a lot, the whole Tim in the back of my mind I waited for explosions, guys that hated me don't as much now, I can be a jerk and we all can, emotions take a toll at times especially when you spend 35,000.00 on engines that you pay CASH for... And have a wife just say whatever... And not care, but other things get set aside for a while like the furniture I just got her. The reason a say that is some guys just say fix it, change it or whatever but at the end of the day it's my money that went out and has to go out AGAIN, so yes that part gets old. I made some good friends and Joe and I because just that, and helped a lot. I proved can build engines in the end, and that I made some small mistakes and learned, we all learned many things even during the pizzing matches... At the end of they day none of us wish my nightmare on anyone and I am at least glad it's showing others "hey I might wanna rethink my build" before its to late, that makes it worth it to me... Even at my expense!

I will make this right, I know it's gonna be good in the end as I have things in the right persons hands now, wish some of the guys that helped me here were local to come hang out while we do this... Maybe I will see 74 mph next year lol

I hear that! On a good note... Another year to not worry about winterizing hahaha

Think of all the other non marine shorter duration higher lift combos out there. This could go well beyond this forum.

Yes it is I had it done.
