Where does it say anything about national security? It has more to do with property of FoMoCo. Such as the paperwork that lists the internal inprocess specifications of each and every block. But Iam sure with your infinite wisdom, you knew that.
Your problem, besides being inmature, and having daddy buying you everything, is your head is up your ***...........

Any questions

I know what it costs to build a motor and a college kid doesn't have that amount of jingle in his/her pocket. So its an assumption that someone is fronting the costs, especially when they start out with a $30K vehicle.
Looking at the pics you posted about your motor build/swap and seeing the condition you left the garage floor after cleaning the engine compartment, is proof of someone who doesn't know the value of a dollar, has had everything given to them, or just doesn't respect the property of others. Any or all apply?

While you might not be the sole reason of the declining traffic of this site, you and your occasional "snipes" are part of the many problems associated with posting on this site.

How and where you, (your quote) are just playing around is nobodies business but your own, but try to remember that alot of us where enjoying these trucks while you were in jr high school.

Looking forward to your next reply, but I won't be around all day. I have a military funeral (3rd one this month) to attend this morning for Pfc. Vincent M. Frassetto. He was only 21 yrs old and killed in Iraq last week. He died defending these freedoms that some people take for granted. So I ask that you please say a prayer for his family before you continue "playing around"....... and then bash me all you want.

So I don't end this in a slamfest..........
Good Luck with your engine build and thanks for the spelling lesson

That's a pretty f'in ****ty assumption to make of someone just because of their age. You a racist too? I would hope you'd be old enough to know that not everyone is the same just because they fit into a "profiled group"

Nobody has fronted the costs for the engine build except for myself. I work summers, two of them washing cars at a dealership, and only this last summer was I able to get a desk job doing accounting work. I have three academic scholarships to UF. One pays for school, and the leftover goes into toys and savings. I've been scraping pennies and started collecting parts for this since spring 2004, so it's been a little here and a little there for a long time. I've put forth the work to earn the money I spend.

To explain the garage floor situation, it was painted when we moved into that house in 2001, and started peeling about 2 weeks later. At this point in time, it was basically a wreck, and we planned on redoing it during the winter. After I finished up with the truck, I rolled it out and stripped the floor clean, and I'll be painting it probably during my thanksgiving vacation. I'll acknowledge

My impression is that you've had a grudge with me since I tested my free racetested kit, and contradicted your bad experience with the positive results of my own. To imply that I could be bought off with a free nitrous kit was insulting to m character, since I would just as eagerly have packed it into a box and sent it back if it didn't work well.

My prayers go out to Vince and his Family, I sympathize with all my heart, since I lost a good friend a little over a year ago.

My "snipes" on here are all tongue-in-cheek, so don't take anything personally.

I'm off to watch the Gators beat Tennesee

Who knew washing cars paid so good, as that was my first job I ever had. But looking at the motor work pics and then the pics of the dually pulling the trailer with your Lightning on it...........damn, guess I should be washing cars too. That said...............

I apologize for anything I said that was out of line

The garage floor was one thing, but looking at the red brick paved driveway was another. I bought a paved driveway, and you can bet you last dollar, you would NEVER have oil and such falling anywhere near those pavers, IF YOU PAIDED FOR THEM!
But I understand your reasoning...........understand mine

You do know this is the very first time you have admitted that the kit was FREE. Your charter was never in judgement, except for you failing to admit it was free. So your postive reviews are bought, plain and simple.
Having been told it was always my fault for the problems, with his high and might stance got old. Especially when he called it the World's Best! But he has now acknowledged that the plastic lines do not work under the hood of a Lightning, as he has since offered an upgrade to stainless. Denny said he was giving a kit to 2 people,1 up north, and 1 down south. But yet NOBODY ever admitted to getting a free kit. That in itself was the funny part. You (down south) and Rich (up north) are the only 2 people that time and time again say how great the system is, but you always told me that you paid for the system. Check your sig and his......RaceTested........LOL
I could have made a sig that said F_cked by RaceTested, by I figured why waste the time. But it would be great to see him in court over the $1500

LOL, this one is going to be fun............

First off, Welcome to the Al Sharpton/Jesse Jackson School of Thought.

If you have nothing concrete to say, or points to make, just call them a racist. Iam so glad to decided to stick your nose in here, because you have shown what an troublesome soul you are.
So you are an 23 yr old college student who has busted his ***. And had to work since your 15.
Both my parents died when I was 17, and I had a 12 yr old brother to take care off. Want to try those shoes on?

Welcome to the real world, it sucks doesn't it?
Your so fuc king funny it isn't even funny...........let me guess, you live at home and mommy does your laundry.
But you provide every dollar for your truck and buy your gas. Screw providing a roof over your head, food, clothing and the other requirements of life.

So for now my next assumption is...........your an ***
I could go on, but I would like to watch the games tonight before I have to get up at 5 for another long day

Neither the dually or the trailer are mine. They belong to very good, and generous friends of mine.

I never had issues with the plastic lines, or anything else in the kit, but every truck and setup is different, so it's pointless to argue details there. I never said I paid for the kit, but I figured it was assumed it was free.

what a great thread

racetested gave a kit for me to test also,,it did not do well

i didnt give the pos kit back either,,,lol

the way i figure,,,,i took it to the track 3 times,,,i didnt have any failures with the kit,,,it just dont make the power that it claims!!!!
and the lag off the line is horible. so he wasnt getting it back,,,but i did give it away to someone

back to the argueing,,,the way i see it kids are the ones that should have all the cool toys,,,,,,,no responsibility = lots of toy money

when i was in college all i had was a junk vw and giant box of condums

im sure if a 23 year old is still in college he must be working on his masters right now,,,so keep up the good work,,cause remember when you are ready to move out on your own,,,,,,,your parents should be ready to move in
