I dunno...it looked to me like a pack of wild dogs turning on each other. I think some valuable friendships have been made in this thread .

I am actually quite proud of that move. Maybe someday I will tell you how to end up with a built motor installed with only 5000 out of pocket. But you probably can't afford 5K...
So you sold a used stock trans for $1200 and for $150 more you got a MB, did you tell the person you sold it to,"Hey sucker you could of got a MB for $150 more" . Cheat a person or a corporation = hypocrite. Built motor installation for $5000 ? , I installed mine for free. With all the moral people here,i've changed my ways ,i'm going to give back my stock motor , that was stolen from ford.

Nope...because they couldn't buy a Monster Box for 1350 bucks. Greg had it on Ebay and nobody bid on it...LOL. I guess they where all looking on the forums for their MB needs. Wow dude...you really have issues .

That is not a bad deal for someone needing a motor in a pinch. There have been a few others around also. We have a couple local guys selling built options at a discount also.

actually Tim, they are teaching hooked on phonics in Law school now, so we can communicate with our clients.




btw: Passed the bar in July (1st time) and now I'm employed. Who'd a thunk.

It sounds like they are trying to make the lawyers stupid too. Not that they have to try real hard. Just remember because you are a lawyer it doesn't make you intelligent. You only go as far as your clients go.

It appears from your past notes that you've had detonation issues before (Nov. '04), did you ever get that straightened out? Also, you asked about changing plugs recently but didn't ever say you did it after the pulley swap / tune. Did you ever go to the NGKs? Take the time to do the mods correctly and you can avoid problems.

Sorry, I had to respond, might be a part of history on F150online.com?

What a fricking joke to our board!

Moderator....... are you out there? This is a waste of our enthusiast's opinions!

What value is this post to our community?

We can decide whether or not our opinions are wasted without any assistance from you.

BTW, the moderator has even posted in this thread.

1. It involves a moral question of great relevance to our community.
2. It gives us a chance to see who has high morals and who doesn't (or at least who professes / aspires to high morals).
3. It has been the most interesting post I've seen in a while. Much more interesting than the normal redundant tire/spark plug/etc discussions. But maybe you are more comfortable with those threads. So by all means, feel free to leave this one and look elsewhere.
