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.

Based on how much money i've saved thus far, and the fact that I love your "Payback" more than most, i'm thinking of renaming mine "Refund".

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.
