mine dropped a valve..I did not properly ensure radial clearance. I clearly stated that at the time in the dyno thread that I checked depth but rushed and did not check with clay also. Look it up. I did not blame anyone else or hide the truth I even posted pictures for all to see.


I'm making sense, just not agreeing with you so you don't understand what it means....

Don't be so sure of your yourself or your advantage.....you still have to run the thing without it dying and parts do break...in the real world where racing happens.

You sure are stretching the conversation a bit....

Go back and read my last response. I told you exactly what I’ve done, no issues with my ego. Its the truth, I said it earlier. I’ve never been fast.

Started my build in 2009-2010. Took a couple years to get the chassis done and everything put back together. All the while I was buying/building all of my parts to finish the engine. Finished the engine first so I put it on a dyno in 2011 ( I think). I had less than stellar results because I purchased a used set of eheads that I never should have bought. I also assumed the dyno operator knew more than me so I paid him to tune it for me. He failed because of his so-called knowledge of the FAST classic system.

I didn’t force him to tune the engine in open loop following the TPS like I did before he got it. I should have been more forceful and demanded it. But I’m paying him $1500 so he should know best right....

He let it get lean because he was trying to run it in closed loop while running methanol. Unfortunately that doesn’t work with the classic system. EGT's got above 1300° and it was still climbing when it torched the head.

So in other words my inexperience and his over-confidence hurt my engine. I decided to buy the cv-1's and it took me a year to get the heads and all of the hot/cold side tubing made up to fit them. Everything I built for the eheads was scraped.

In the mean time I put the car together and built another engine to take on drag week. We didn’t get it finished until we got to the track on Sunday. I pushed it way to hard and made some shortcuts just to make it. That caught up to me and I didn’t make the next day.

See- I’m human and have no issues talking about my experience with fast cars.

Did that help make your point?

Did I call out every person in this post? Nope, I just alluded to racing Lil Jack and Kinsler. It’s all an observation.

Ok let’s move on to the next subject. You are one dumb MF'r if you think I would interview someone like I respond to you posts on the internet. I explained the technique, I didn’t say I direct the entire interview that way. Geesh you are slow, do I need to detail everything out to you? Typical Ops manager


Ive already been to the track. Ive also put at least 200 miles on the street. Im sure I'll be fine until I break it again.

GOT IT! LOL!
Hey there sharpie, you're the one that said you use that technique as a personality test not me.....I know all about you now. It sounded great when you said it and thought it gave you the upper hand. Now that its been pointed out how neurotic that style of personality attack(its not a test) would be. Then you switch to that would be ridiculous and anybody that thought you did that would be an idiot.....except you.

I ask interviewed candidates difficult questions too. You carry on with your retarded pickle nonsense. I will continue asking them relevant questions that cause them to sort through their emotions prior to giving and answer.


You still have no Idea what I do or my background.....funny you keep insisting that I am some kind of failure....and you are the one still aspiring to be what you claim you are(at least as far as cars go). I'm pretty comfortable in what I do and my capabilities so if it makes you feel bigger to make gasping baseless claims continue I guess.

I hope you have better luck on the next engine. The learning curve is sharp with power adders. Just try settling down a bit and get some track time. Then you can start getting all frisky with callouts. YOU SHOULD have more than enough for jeff and possibly jack. It would seem that you should know by now its not a gimmie. Nothing new here.....

You mean to tell me you finally figured out I was pulling the wool over your eyes?

Good for you!!!
