I was on a fishing trip with my old dog and it ruined the hole trip. My dog was pretty olD so he didnt have to many damn trips left. That's when I went off the wagon and everything went to crap with my second wife. She was worthless anyways. I'm still paying that B!tch!  The guy woudn't stand behind it so I put is a SB stoked to 377. No more problems and it had more power than that damn POS FE. The smaLL blocks were world champs...kinda
hard to argue wiTh that....
I really have ahd enough so lets just drop this and move on OK? Thanks.

Some people hate chevy, some hate mopar, some hate ford. Likewise there are those that love chevy, some love mopar, and some love ford. Mostly these emotions are based on one good or bad experiance or some other illogical reason. Fact is any engine can be made to perform well, if you know how to build it. Likewise any can be modified into pile of crap, if you do not know what your doing. It's a lot easier to turn a good engine into junk than a junk engine into a good one, and it takes no skills to turn 'em into junk.
The FE is an engine that requires a lot of skill. Your builder obviously did not have the necessary skills. Your problems were the builder, not the FE. Let go of your emotions and see it the way it is. You are obviously anoying the FE faithfull. If you must get it off you chest one more time, look up some chevy guys. They will love hearing the story.
Sorry for all the troubles you had. I wish your SB well.
