Your optimism is admirably as well.. especially when you talk about out running me because that's all it is...
I know when I chose the parts for my stroker I chose the I beam rods that will clear and the Machine Shop still notched my block when they did the boring because it was part of the programming available for this type of engine build. It actually cost$90 and I said that didn't need to happen and he said well how about if we split the difference I said okay. as I research the h-beam rods definitely needed to be notched and I don't see how you would put the motor together without doing that first...
Remember you kicked my sand castle first! I'm willing to drop it..
