Everything about how he does things all made sense when he mentioned a while back that he dropped out of school at 17 and just worked on cars the rest of his life. His approach is just never that well thought-out and he rarely considers any backup plans. And he doesn't stay focused like some have mentioned. It's like he's trying to prove something to the world but every time he fails he chalks it up to being on a budget or some other lame excuse and just jumps to some other incomplete project. He still thinks like a 17-year-old IMO.
@replicaracer43 I started watching that "build" video then stopped after a few minutes when he showed the whole boring .010" over (WITH A HAND-HONE) and measuring taper with a used ring... for f**k's sakes man that engine is gonna run like garbage and blow up like all his others and he'll end up spending way more to build a second engine than if he just took the damn thing to a machine shop and paid a few hundred bucks for an overbore and hone. There's a reason REAL racers try to minimize piston-to-wall clearance; doing that hack stuff is for your old-*** worn truck engine that you just need to keep going for another year or 2 while you save up for a new engine, not a performance build for a racing project!
Sorry I had a stressful day at work lol, rant over...
