Todd - your thread and reviews are so detailed and technical sometimes I have no idea what is going on, and it gets me going on a path of researching and learning something new.. such as knockback when you started posting about it. Now I can say I know what that is and that I will be joining you in having it. :D

Good stuff man. Keep it rolling and see ya soon.

Todd, you have paved the way for a lot of guys on here with all the information you have shared, especially me. That last post you made about what you would do different is one of the most valuable posts made to someone like me----you are one of the guys actually out there doing road courses, auto Xing and driving the car. The comments you make, the products you use, your write up of how they've worked (good or bad) really means something to me--and obviously they do to others as well. It ultimately helps guys like me to buy right the first time, thus enjoying the car more. Not sure anyone has ever said this to you, but thank you for sharing those experiences with us here as they have helped me immensly! My build plan for the car over the next 2 years has and will continue to change based on details you've listed here and conversations we have had. Thanks for the honest assesment and sharing your feedback here---it's that kind of information that really makes this site a great place.

I was about to write the same thing but Doug beat me to it. Many many thanks for all the information and honesty you've shared with all of us via this thread Todd. It's REALLY appreciated. Now that I have a Mr. 12370850 sitting in my garage, I'm sure I'll be picking your brain a few more times starting next year. I plan to run fuel injection and a hydraulic cam that's a little more modest than yours. Would be happy with HP/TQ in the low 600's. Hopefully I might actually be able to share some info with you one day too, although you've always been ahead of my curve. My build won't start until next year though(because I'm tired of spending money too!). This year I gotta just run what I brung.

Look forward to sharing a beer with you after RTTC. :cheers:

Really, congrats man. I'd put it in the living room until you're ready to build that bad boy. :lol: The wife will never notice. I'm onboard, let's talk big blocks next month. :thumbsup:

Yah, I'm thinking of putting a piece of glass over it and it'd be the best coffee table ever. Bottom side up so everyone can see those engraved main caps. :lol: Yep, next month we're talking big blocks. Sounds perfect. :thumbsup:

I also wanted to thank you Todd, your reviews, actual performance on track and answers to my questions helped me decide on my new rear suspension setup. :thumbsup:

Don't worry anout the money, more can always be made. :unibrow:

Not sure which I've spent more money on in the last 4 years, cars or beer. :lol: I've had a ton of fun making wise cracks on this thread and about everyone elses on the board.

That short block wasn't free, I'm still waiting for you to show up and mow my lawn. :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Seriously, the friends I've made(you guys) and all the bull****ting has been just as much fun as building the car. Let's get back to cars before our man cards are revoked. ;)
