True. My brother still thinks he'll have a 1969 corvette complete with LS9 and ZR1 suspension/brakes by the time he's 30.

8.5 years left, dude. Better start cracking on that.

no offense to the guy, but I'm not even going to try and rationalize his thoughts on this.

over at another forum I'm on, a guy wanted to build a 383 LT1 that would rev to 10k rpm (and not need to be rebuilt every weekend). wanted to export the car to Japan and run with the ricers.

I've heard that taking the engine apart and coating everything in Teflon not only works, but increases max revs by 5000 rpms (without having to make any changes to the computer), increases horsepower by 350, and increase fuel economy into the low 40s.

I've heard that unicorn blood has the highest viscosity and allows you to run at 11k with failure.
