Thanks for the kind words Pug's. I personally just think people need to start giving their background and what merit they have. But whatever... the dude don't even have the decency to delete his rubbish.
Actually Pug's you do learn little stuff around the way for hp gains and stuff. You can play all around in the bottom end for oiling and windage setups. then you have deck height considerations, coatings, etc. Lots to know. But I have to give huge credit to the guys that do my machine work. Murgic's Racing does my bottom end prep and I use their dyno on occasion. The owner Sam is a circle track legend here and good friend of mine. My guy who does my head porting is a borderline God. He's retired now and does work for me, a couple of circle track guys and that is it. He is just amazing. You find as you get more serious you tend to go a team route. I know they aftermarket style Ford nine well enough and do all my suspension, motor building, box settings, etc. But I know when to call in the specialists... the guys that all they do is one part... thus my head guy, my Tranny guy, and machine shop. Look at the crews Pro street and NHRA guys have. Also a good arsonal of Gearhead buddies in your pit is a plus when you need some major between round repairs.
