You make a good point, a very good point.

Well maybe I should change that thread to ZL1 vs Sideoiler since DG ain't getting any closer to actually running against me

I think all us mere mortals know that feeling Seeing some of the builds on here makes it even worse sometimes. You see stuff you just want to do but you have to slow down and think do I really need that? Wouldn't it be better to actually get it on the road and still have $$ to fuel it up.

Yep, when you're knee deep in sh_t, it helps when you look over and there's somebody else there with you. I got "mo' money" pics coming shortly so these support sessions will continue.

Well, if we can agree upon a chassis dyno to engine dyno conversion percentage then you can plug me into that battle also. I might be lower on the HP but my TQ numbers should be solid.

1. Running on a chassis Dyno is proof the car is drive able. That type of in your face taunting really isn't proper etiquette Chris. Nobody likes a show off

2. DG is a little frail right now. Having two big blocks school him on torque production ain't cool; So....... I think we need to make it happen

3. Good choice on Pettis he builds a lot of fast stuff(Fords)

1. Well, it sounds good on paper. Hopefully it survives the dyno and you don't see a Budnik wheel rolling out of the dyno garage in the video.

2. When DG gets his sh_t together, he's gonna bring it. He might be loaded up on metamucil and stool softener when that finally happens, but still, I think I'll tread lightly with him.

3. He works on Fords too? Hmmm...I guess he needs the business. Maybe I'll pitch in a little extra at payment time.

All jokes aside, I like Fords too, so that'll be the last jab you'll here from me about Fords. I'm an 'equal opportunity' motor head. I'll let others rib you about that.
