I think he got a pretty good deal on the new Ford block. I was tempted to snatch one up myself...

Fogging meth into a shaker scoop hardly seems like a useful exerciseMeth-Injection and a Shaker hood scoop.


errr maybe your right. Its my fault for pretty much every tuner fucking me over. Also its my fault about MMR ripping me off that way. I heard more good things about Mmr then bad. That's why I went with them. I spent 2-3 month researching before buying a SB. It looks like some of you guys should get into fortune telling since your all knowing. Sheesh
That's because you have selective hearing.I heard more good things about Mmr then bad.

There's never enough time or money to do it right the first time, but there is always time and money to do it twice...I can't remember how many times I've had to buy something twice because I tried to save some money up front.
In the past 10 years or so, I've made a concerted effort to learn that lesson. I'm not always 100% successful, but much better than when I was younger.There's never enough time or money to do it right the first time, but there is always time and money to do it twice...
I don't think you ever stop learning that lesson - just cut down on the feedback time it takes to realize your repeated mistake...

The over bore that is. Anyone?
These Aluminum blocks are cast with an iron sleeve for the bore in place. When you bore it out, you make this sleeve thinner which means that it cannot handle as much pressure without flexing. So, the trouble is that if you take a spanking new block and bore it out .030 - then you can't bore it again without making the walls too thin when you rebuild...The over bore that is. Anyone?
Cekim - thanks... for the info.
I'll figure that is you over bore it on a rebuild you need to replace the pistons then as well due to the slight change in the diameter of the cylinder?
