Kind of like when I went into the Harley shop to pick up some gaskets, filter and fluids. The guy took most of my money and I told him he almost broke me. "He said we weigh you when you come in the door so we know how much money you are holding on you".

I just need five minutes alone with that block. But I'd prefer to flog it unmercifuly after being installed in my car.

I like engine porn, but it will never replace women.

Hey Big Al, If I ever win the Lottery I'm calling you up and placing an order
I really like those stainless steel bench tops too! Nice rolled lip along the edge so the tools don't roll off the bench
I want one
That place looks first class!
