    @ChrisXCXCX good advice!
    check it out, go to the guys shop when he’s in, ask questions, see whats up, make sure you know everything that your engine builder will do to your motor
    guys would rather just pay some anonymous,internet stranger instead of hiring locally, if there’s a problem with your internet buy, your fucked..

    I was really hoping Cal. Larry wasn’t making the Wild Willy’s a trailer Queen, but might not be a bad idea to pull it around on a trailer after looking at how the engine was put together. Sure hope the internals are better. Maybe the builder was (seeing impaired)

    I built a stroker motor and the guy at the parts house sold me on a Chinese intake. It had oblong holes to bolt to the heads and some sort of spacing material to make the intake line up. I took it back and payed a little more money to get an Edlebrock with an American flag on it. No problems. Oh yea Toyota…my throttle cable works fine to.
