It was too much to ask to have quality parts made correctly after spending thousands of dollars.

Was this the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th or 6th time you changed motors?

Ummm Wilma I meant when originally put the 408 in and you kept going back and forth on the Vic Jr. It was rather annoying to deal with as I was putting it together. You were the sameway when I did the 400 install also.
The solid roller and new heads stuff yes you had every right to be pissy.

Go take some Midol regardless

What was rather annoying to deal with was a nitrous install taking over 4 fucking months,something which really should have taken about 4 hours. Now- credit given where it's due- not directly your fault but damn, you wonder why I was paranoid about shit going smoothly and working? That 400 almost cost me the engine when those converter bolts started backing out. It's a dead topic. That whole scenario had shit going on that neither of us could control.

Now back on topic.
