I think you missed one. The Tech article on "How to spend 3 years of my pay on an AU by putting a 4.6L Mod engine in with a 2.8L Mammoth Kenne Belle on it, then splitting the block and opting for a 5.0 Cammer all to find out that the IRS cant handle the immense loads at the drags, and yes Im insane".

Well, three years of MY pay anyway, best thread ever, and I cant wait till till Alluminator is up and running, will be just as crazy.
