Not trying to get into a debate, I'm glad your happy but I just don't want everyone thinking an 80E is the only way to handle power reliably.
exactly,i think a properly built 60e is a better choice than a stock 80e

nope, the only bolts ever turned on that thing has been swapping the oil pan, and taking off the valve covers... all stock with my tuning... for the turbo setup LOL

i agree, my personally opinion is the 80e swap is not worth it unless you are running low 11's or into the 10's.... but properly built 60e will take you way into the 11's and still be reliable....
