Jake, I have the upmost respect for your experience in hi performance motors...

That said....I most likely will have spent as much to build this motor as if I bought one from you. (OR MOST LIKELY MORE!!!)

I will most likely make more mistakes that are costly.

But, being a hard headed german....I like to learn from mistakes. If I bought your motor, it would be plug and play. Where is the fun in that???? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

To me, the fun is in the journey...not the destination. Function over form, that kind of thing.....

As you wisely put it...it is in the combo....and as I am discovering, you have been there before and done that.....some of us want to enjoy the journey, most do not. Your experience is every penny.....

Of course, that said, I am a cheap bastard.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Moral of the story, buy an engine from Jake, it WILL save you money....

We need a $$ smiley.....

thanks, herb
