With a phrase like Git-er-done You just can't be from MI. I thought only us southern Redneck's used language such as that , Please tell me our ignorance isn't spreading.

BGIII If you would like to donate a nice pair of BB's I would be glad to quit analizing & get down to business. A nice match to my blown 511 would be nice but my wallet is a bit too shallow for another one.

I still think the splitter would be a cool set up. Then if it didn't workout you could swap out the big block for your pair of small blocks.

1. a splitter would probably cost as much as that #6 you're longing for.
And... i think the sbc is more than 200lb diff.

I vote: sell the shop, and get a pair of ilmor 625s.
