Never said it would be lagy, mearly that it doesn't rev the same. That wouldn't stop me from doing it...





For any of you guys... How much would say a 2.2l or a 2.4l actually move the band to the left, 3-400rpm.

IIRC, it does move about 300/400 rpms off for a 2.3 and 2.4l. Someone correct us...Coupled with an HTA Green or BBK, it would make a solid autox car!

and you're the Milhouse of the Philly thread...

Did you actually search up stroking motors, or did you search LESCO because I wrote it in my post?

I'm in about $1200 total which is a steal. Figure another $600 for machine work and you have a beast of a motor. I found my motor for $200. It was a complete longblock and by the time I parted out the head and other parts I didn't need, I had actually made $150 on it.

If anyone is looking for a set of Bilsteins, this looks like it could be a good deal.

I believe that Kenny asked if I would be at the AutoX on Sunday, and the answer is most likely. Is your car going to be ready?

Marc, Good luck on the engine build. I can see that you fell victim to the four most expensive word in auto repair. The McRib flow chart is great.

Dan/Robert, I ate at Taqueria La Michoacana last night. ¡Muy Bueno! Also Robert, I went to an unbelievable Ice Cream/Chocolate shop not far from Norristown. It's called Zwahlen's Ice Cream & Chocolate Co, and it's on Trooper rd. I'm not necessarily one for sweets, but this place was unbelievable.

Dan, did you know Patrick Brady?

He worked in IT at Jefferson, and was also from Thorndale. Apparently he was murdered and set on fire at a Center City hotel by a Tranny Hooker.

When I initially heard on the radio that a Jefferson employee from Thorndale was murdered by a Tranny Hooker, I was immediately concerned that your 'habit' had finally caught up with you.
