Lol, I'm just kidding!! Everything I buy I pay off the next month. I use my CC as much as possible for points. So far I've gotten a HUGE lazerjet printer and I'm saving up for a 52" flat screen TV...need another 85,000 points out of 250,000. I've seen my step dad deal with CC and bank problems enough to where I'm clean and debt free. Not worth it.

Yeah, but she'd be talkin' about his debt-havin' *** as the banks come looking for payment b/c she inherited his debt after he's gone. That's jacked up if you think THAT'S fair to wife & kids.

Nice 408... what's in store for the old 6.0?

Yeah, I've paid for it as I go. Taken me about 8 mos.

The old 6.0?
Heads and crank might make good boat anchors?
The block, I'm thinking about building another motor for my '70 Lemans. You can see it at the end of the idle vid.

I'll try to post up a better idle/ rev video today.
