Maybe so, but the other items I listed carry an awful lot of clout...

Unfortunately from time to time, I have to build Chevy engines. But it's easy since I can run down to Walmart, pick up the parts I need, then let my daughter assemble it.

I constantly wonder why GM did some of the things that they did with their designs....putting a roller cam in a SBC or BBC is one of the stupidest things ever. Bronze wear plates, buttons, lock plates, it's all a poor design. The last one or two that I did, I ordered the cam with a Gen VI stub on the front of the cam, then used a thrust plate....like a Ford.

Just jabbin' you all......sorta.......
