Ellie can't read; I read these threads to her in a funny cartoon voice. But she won't be happy until he starts building the engine.

If he seizes up this beautiful new nitrided cam it will be because he didn't use that GM additive that I sent him.

With a nitrided cam and tool steel lifters, if this cam gets eaten, it will be a government-backed conspiracy.

No worries.

I had heard Brent was cruel, but taking it out on the lawnmower is low...

Does this mean there will be ten years of thread as you start something new?

Good to hear from you again Dave.

To answer your question, it depends on who's involved in the thread.

My customer's Boss 528 build thread went really fast......

Yes, I laid the cam box on top of the block.

How about I just pay you for the cam? I can assure you that I'm not going to be in the habit of making "progress reports" every week.

I didn't mean it like that Patrick. My point was that due to a budget (something some of you guys have no clue about) and staying busy here, things may not move for long periods of time.
