Instead of flying off and saying a bunch of **** and making it sound like you're an ***, why not just ask why it sounds like that? All of your posts just made it look like you were trying to badmouth him.

Adam looks like he means no harm, dude.
Like I said, man....definitely the coolest 15yr old i know. In 6yrs you'll get a beer from me, at least. Congrats on the build man, sounds like the apex seals seated right in good. Very smooth rev and pretty good hot start for no more time than you have on it.

Please keep this thread clean. If I have to do any more cleaning, I will just delete it.
It's been mentioned before, but it is worth repeating. Put the fan shrowd back on. The stock 89+ temp gauge has three settings: cold, normal and new engine. The gauge will stay in the center even though the engine is running at unsafely hot temperatures, and by the time it shoots up to the "HOT" area, it's already too late.
