Ah yes, this is the law that states that Tom Cruise, Julia Roberts, Denzel Washington, Gene Hackman, John Cusack, Dustin Hoffman, etc. are bad actors since they acted in movies based upon John Gresham's books.

If not, then I'll need our resident expert at everything, Patrick, to explain it to me.

I dont care to participate in the real or not real debate (and dont really care) but what about the "shelby" block my Roush engine started with. Unless I understood it wrong, Roush started out with a 427 shelby alum block for the 511 engine in my car. Am I incorrect?

You are correct. I had a CSX car on order through Hillbank (before I decided to go a different route) and it was slated for a Roush built 511 using a CSX block. Roush was even going to put the CSX# of the car on the block for me.

Hey, matching numbers!

I wonder if they would have done this for a Kirkham?

KMP 539 and CSX 931. Oh well. Another missed opportunity.

As usual, you are hopelessly wrong. Think Sir Thomas Gresham, around the 16th century or so....

Darn it! My parents will be pissed.

Seven years of college, three years of economics, five and half years of high school and repeating Kindergarten, 2nd and 4th grades ALL DOWN THE DRAIN.

I prefer the term "REAL Kirkham".

I fit the general Cobra replica buyer profile: dumb and argumentative. Of course, there are exceptions to this Cobra replica buyer profile such as Patrick, who's expertise in every subject area is beyond mere mortals, though he's still argumentative.
