    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    I didn't judge them. If people are unable to handle tense situations, then they shouldn't take tense jobs in the first place. That's just a fact.

    Thanks, counselor, for admitting those charged with protecting and serving are "prone to shoot." WTF?

    With friends like Eagle, who needs enemies.

    You seem to forget that cops are people and people react to certain stimuli unpredictable ways. Constant stress effects every person in different ways. I am glad you are immuned to stress.

    You judged those cops by saying that this story is the reason they are prone to shooting.

    Nice try that was an explanation on why some cops react with lethal force early.

    No, I'm not sure yet what intake I'm going with. I might go with an Edelbrock single 4 barrel medium riser intake for hood clearance and easier tuning.
    The guy building it says he can get over 500 HP out of the cast iron block and heads with a single 4 barrel. That's enough for such a light car. We'll see...

    I had a dual quad ram induction manifold on my 57 Chevy 327. It would pull the tires off the ground by a couple of inches with cheater slicks.

    Friends told me my 289 hipo '64 Falcon Sprint would lift the front tires while running street tires in the rear. The '67 Mustang had the power, but the front end was too heavy. It was much faster.
