When people talking about working on their stuff, does that mean you go to your engine builder and work on the dyno or buy the latest trick peice? I called for a cam shaft from Bullet cams and the first words out of the salesman was "who's your engine builder?". I said you are talking to him! I'd like to know what is meant by work on your stuff? Yes, I stopped working as hard as I can, but I build my own engines and work in my garage with limited time and funding. I think that old guys use the "Purple Pill", why not let us slow guys who work on our own stuff in ower own garage use the "Blue Bottle" to catch up with the guys who work on their professionally bought stuff? I'm angry because I keep hearing about lowering the indexes, my car is carrying weight from a car from 1968 Stock Eliminator. Which never got lifted off and just keeps on getting more weight because professional engine builders find more horsepower on a dyno so that the purchaser of the engine can go faster.
Work on your stuff, what a joke!
