Yup. Crank is fine. The $3k stroker package was very tempting but decided to keep it simple and lower budget.

whats funny and friends and family still make fun of me for it... I will keep my dinners to like $3 a night... and wear clothes til they are just done.... but... ohhh shiny trick flow heads!!! Take my credit card now!!!
right now i can't stop staring at 8-71 blowers.... would be the biggest mistake of my life... but... mmm blower..... Only thing stopping me is, i don't need the power and i would have to move my engine back to fit the belt.. (more the moving the engine thing)
So.. i'm good at not wasting money cept on toys i want eventually.. takes me forever to talk myself into buying stuff... BUT.. house is paid off... have had my truck 2.5 months and it wil be paid off in april... sooo could be worse

When I was single, I ate cheap too but don't think I could do 3 bucks and day these days. On the other hand, if I go out to eat, I always bring home 2/3rds of the dinner. Also, my sister used to ask me 'when are you going to quit playing with cars'? and my reply is when I get old or when I quit making money with them. I didn't get it because I used to take care of her car before I had a license to drive!! She still hammers on me today and I hammer back.whats funny and friends and family still make fun of me for it...
