I've come and gone on these boards for years. This is exactly the reason why. I don't have an unlimited budget. I have priorities beyond just that Pontiac sitting in the drive.
You post what you've done. Or what you'd like to do. No matter what it is, there's always a jerk or two that tell you why your build is crap if you're not sinking 2500 or more in a set of heads. A high dollar crank or roller cam.
It was asked how much better the OPs engine would run with KRE heads etc. How much more power would that garden variety dime a dozen SBC put out if you put on a twin turbo set up? Comparably, I'm not impressed with your combo either. We all do things according to a budget or a planned outcome. Not necessarily to be the fastest car in the state.
I think it's pretty freakin' sad when someone that's been around long enough to be a so called "ultimate warrior" would belittle someone like that.
Thanks OP for your post. It'll be a fun car! I guess I had hoped it might be different this time. I've got no desire to be affiliated with self important, "my car is better than your car" simpletons.
