All mine are suffed and I didnt do any of them. 2 = valet, there was no parking I had to option, Mom was taking me out to dinner for my birthday.

Others = Skip. And he has to drive because I'm night blind. Oh well, I'll get some F14's when I'm done with engine work.

Not so much school as it is a $150 test that I only want to spend money on once. It's powerplant related so it's not all bad.

They use 350 Chevy analogies when referring to overboring.

"While popular small block automotive engines may be bored, aircraft cylinders, due to their think walled construction can only be bored in a handful of cases.."

If you ever get to see a small aircraft cylinder off of the crank case, it's at most 1-2 inches thick. Even a .0010 overbore is dicey.

I have a hard time seeing at night, no depth perception. So I pretty much wont know there is a car in front of me until I slam into it.

Really? Hmm.. sounds like me driving the T/A at night or any other vehicle without extreme HIDs. Wonder if it's just bad adjustment or something similar?

BB how did you get diagnosed? Asking because I never take the T/A out unless necessary at night, just can't see. It's been recent (within the last 2 years too)

I'm actually the same there. It's safer for me to drive at night with sunglasses on when driving on a two lane highway

Thats worse for me. I have astigmatism which causes my eyes to be bothered by any and all types of light. All it takes is one a hole with their high beams on and I'm blind while driving.

My eye doctor. Its because I have a -13 prescription, bad miopia (spelling) and astigmatism. And I have no pigmentation in my eyes either.

I'm sure your eye doctor could tell you.

Once I get eye surgery I can wear night time driving glasses but until then, Skip is my driver at night unless I have no choice.
