Todd, thanks a million for documenting so many of your real world experiences during your build. This thread gives a true depiction of what a lot of us go through to get or keep our high-performance rides 'working right' and how unreliable or incorrectly built many of these aftermarket parts are. I too have had quite a number of noteworthy aftermarket parts or systems not work as their suppose to or simply fail. Seeing your thread helps me realize that it's not just me and my typical bad luck. Also, seeing your determination and persistence helps me a lot also. So thank you for documenting all that you do. I really appreciate it.
I also really look forward to your engine rebuild. I have a ZZ454 that I may 'enhance' one day and I was looking to get the same numbers out of mine that you're looking to get out of yours, so I definitely will keep my eyes glued to what you end up doing to your engine. Being a big block fan also, your ride and build thread have always been of huge interest to me. Keep up the great work! Loved your racing video clips also!
