Great story US1, I like hearing happy endings.

As far as the 5.0 hp limits go, it does remain to be seen. A couple of thoughts though...balanced, fully counterweighted crankshaft, oil jets cooling the pistons both contribute greatly to help in the vibration/detonation killing your engine dept.

I asked the A.D.A. to turn him loose in the employee parking lot and turn off the security cameras but she wouldn't go for it.

All US-1's Stuff..... Duh..

Everybody's a commodian. :beerchug2:

Back to the sentencing, it is refreshing to see a jury/judge get it right for a change...

On topic, I don't remember reading in here about any differences between the regular 5.0 and the Shelby's rods. Did I miss something?

Point being, would you start from scratch and not make 'one size fits all' rods for the new motor?

You can't. Shelby 5.4 uses a rod that is longer than a 460 big block rod due to taller deck height. The 5.0 uses a much shorter rod.

On the other topic.....if I listed everything the fuckers took I'd kill damn near all the bandwidth here.

10 years, no parole. They were asking for probation. As if someone with 25 prior convictions/11 at felony level (all for burglary of a habitation or theft) should in any fuckin' way qualify for probation. Paraded this whole herd of people across the witness stand saying how he's changed his life in the last three years (funny....same amount of time since he hit my place) and he's had a "religious epiphany" or some "come to Jesus" awakening. Plus he's counseling gang members and getting them to turn their lives around, he's a model father to his sons these days, and even though his only job is a part-time DJ gig at a swingers club, he really wants to pay me back for everything he took from me and my kids.

Yeah, sure. I'll stand on my head in the corner holding my breath while he manages to scrape up the $92,000 worth.

Then his family was so distraught when the judge read the verdict. My initial response was......."Goody." One of the jackasses who was there on his behalf made some comment to me about keeping an eye on my house and property. I told him, "Not a problem....if you can get past the dog then you can worry about the armory, Dickhead." At that point, the bailiff who overheard the exchange arrested the guy for making a "terroristic threat." Found out that's a 30 day jail sentence around here.

I'm just pissing more people off every day. :LMAO:

Not to take the thread off course but.....

If this scumbag has changed his ways and accepted Jesus in his life--then he should also accept responsibility of his previous actions. Did he offer to return any parts or money? If not then he is just a liar and a thief, nothing more.

No, he did not. Didn't even know what half the shit he took was. Still don't know where my Thunderbird is either. Tools, air tools, precision measurement tools, shop equipment, mig & tig welders, flow bench & computer, compressors, jacks/jackstands, porting equipment, four Teksid blocks, two sets of 5.4 GT heads, two 460 Eliminator blocks, one set of C460 heads, valves, springs, cams, pistons, rods, two Crower BBF 4.250" stroke cranks, four Cobra cranks, a Rossler TH210 transmission, two billet converters from Lenny, a new BS3 system............all that was just in the shop with the T-Bird. Doesn't even cover what they took from the house like Mikey's baseball gear. Seriously...who the fuck steals a 9 year old kid's catcher's gear, bats, and helmet??? Hell, the baseball bag had the catcher's mitt that my Dad bought me when I was eight years old. Computers, cameras, Mike's electronic keyboard, his compound bow, all my pictures of the boys when they were kids, radios, everything. Couldn't open the gun safe...thankfully. Don't know where anything is now. The A.D.A. told me that's one reason why he got 10 years instead of 3-5 with parole option. He either couldn't or wouldn't say where most of the stuff was sold or pawned or dumped.

Pisses me off thinking about it.

First off let me say I am sorry you had to go through all the Bull shit. I have been there , and it pisses you off really bad.The invasion of your life is the most upsetting.
I too would rather be locked in a room with no weapons and the asshole who robbed me. Something about being a pugilist; that I am.
I hope you will be able to re-coupe some of your loss. Did you have insurance?Forgive me if it was already stated.

State Farm sucks ass. Took over a year to get that out of them.
That is why I went to Farmers it took me 6 months to get my money from State Farm. Farmers had a check out that week to me.

This is all OT, but great info anyway.

You give your money to the insurance companies, sometimes for years and years, and never know how 'good' they are until something ugly happens. Then its too late to find out they suck ass.

Thanks for the feedback,

Brian
