When you turn your hobby into a job like I did years ago it takes the fun right out of it. I only turn wrenches when I have too. LOL I have only done 2 big jobs since I retired my tools. I did two cam swaps in my 5.9 Cummins. The cams were free. I don't call replacing injectors, brakes, turbo's, exhaust manifold, suspension work, or oil changes, etc. as big jobs.

Calling the other folks who don't do all their own work as fake car guys. I laughed at that.

That's where he lost me. I'm all for building chit yourself but no need to be an azz about it and these are not like old small block chevys, the tolerances are just too tight to be slapping together in your garage :twocents:

If he's so confident, why is he stopping at 35 psi like a little bitch? I think he should shoot for triple digit boost :rock:

lol I love his idiot logic and felt the need to point it out. He must not be a car enthusiast if he's not building it himself then :rolleyes:

I can tell want happened to the crank and bearings. They ordered the wrong bearings. I bet they measured the crank journal diameter, and figured on paper on what size bearings to order. And not actually measuring the bearings. Slapped them in and called it good. Bet they didn't plastigage the journals. I know they don't know on how to do a lead check.

Bet this engine goes BOOM again.

He sounds like a Jeeper. 'It's not a real Jeep until you build it yourself." :shakes head:
