See, you missed it again. Read the second part of quoted message again...if it is available, why not used it?
As to being in the deep end of the pool - maybe. I've never been one to say I can't make a mistake nor do I know what I don't know. I'm also one that seems to take way too long to get projects actually on the car. No excuses for that. But in regards to getting this motor in the car and fires, based on what I do know, pretty sure I can make it happen. AC, cruise, things like that are a different question and a bridge we will cross when we get there.
