I see this with my kids and my wife all the time. When they know they did something wrong, they get angry at me first so that I get on the defensive. It's called the "you can't be mad at me, because I was mad at you first" syndrome...
Thanks! I have some parts that came with the engine that I didn't need and will be selling them soon to offset some of the cost of the engine. It's still a good roller block core for my stroker project.
