That was more in reference to what I've done to keep this truck alive. We haven't gotten to my short block yet XD

Trade work is sacred to me. I put my hands to something that is or will be someone else's and treat it better than all my own possesions. Machine work on engines is a skill to take pride in. You have the chance to deliver the fruits of your pursuit of perfection to someone. You better damn well stride hard to chase that perfection. . . I could've done a better job assembling this short block with a baker's whisk and a baseball bat!

Here's hoping the bores are round, but I have my doubts. I have an inside dia. mic in the mail and will be doing a full review of the "remanufactured" short block MABBco sent me.
