This
Engine build doesn’t suck, its cool actually. But it’s excessive. There’s such thing as over-renovating in real estate and I refer to that here. I know you are not building classic cars for show - you race them and they get used up and rebuilt. Once you run this Engine, it will just be another used
motor ((
Internal Combustion Engine ? )).
I rebuilt a pretty cool FL350r to showroom two years ago took it to car shows and won trophies and whatnot... but the machine to me was not useful for dirt due to long hours of work, cleaning, etc. It was what I called a head turning trailer queen. Spent too much to build it and when it was done I didn’t want it to get dirty. I’d rather have a scratched up, beat up machine that I don’t mind gets brushed up, beat up, and still gets going. The heartfelt loss of something prestine really hurts as it did my old Fl350r and so I had to let that one go.
We’re not a classic car forum here. If this we’re like a 1960s stingray then sure let the frame-ons begin... just me I’d rather get down and dirty without much fear of blowing my motor (( Internal Combustion Engine ? )) which has given me years of service (abuse) without batting an eye.
