Let's hope so guys! This whole being without my truck has made me realize I would rather have a stock truck than one not running at all.

 

dude dont let that bad experience get you down... seriously youlle be up before you know it

 

I hear ya but I don't believe ya Patience grasshoppa

 

Hey Shannon you have tools and garage at your place? You speak of all these engine's you've built...you wanna tear down my 5.3 and build something cool?

 

ive said that a few times lately

 

Lol, go away and fix your stout 408 and leave us tiny cc guys to our dreams!!

 

ha, a 370 would be much cheaper build to do

 

when i lived in bellflower out there by you guys i had a 2 car garage at my parents house....

but things didnt go well with them... and i unfortunately had to leave... and i couldnt prove what was mine... so i just had to but we could make something cool with your 5.3... im thinkin stroker


if you dont know how to do engine work i could work with you so you culd learn... not trying to be insulting... just not sure if youve ever built engines before.... and if your intersted in learning lemme know


but i have no garage at our apartments

 

Well you haven't read the parts list that went into that 370! Lol
Could of bought a stout 454 crate engine for the price. Not that I'm complaining because it's a great engine, just needs some bugs worked out of the install!

 

Lol, don't worry I don't take thing personal...sniff sniff! You're so mean!
Lol
Actually the only engine I ever took apart and built was a two cylinder engine back in college, it was a lab engine to be dismantled and reassembled by all the students. So I know the parts and how they work I just don't have any experience which counts for way more.
I'm down for your tutelage! When I get my new place I'll set the garage up as a work shop and you can teach me the right tolerances, etc...
Stroked 5.3 is how many cc's? A stroked 5.7 is a 383 right?
