I think what Len meant to say was:

Thanks Troy !
We FINALLY got our C3 GEN Section !!!! WOOO HOOOO !!!
Honestly, it looks like the Tech-proponents will be dissapointed.
The C3 Tech section is still pretty crowded .... but the Gen section is quiet and cozy.

I have to admit, I am one C3 guy who has changed his mind after a few years and I am glad there are two sections. Thanks.

That said...who is the mod who categorizes them. Also, who are ALL the mods? We used to know them all in the whole forum (because the forum was small and there were only a few). Now I can only name one or two. Maybe there ought to be a topic in OT about the current moderators. Just a thought.

LOL Jim...I made the post last night. You are close, but not quite. Was asking about aftermarket/replacement smallblock blocks. But I didn't SPECIFICALLY say 302, even though that was what I was THINKING about

Thanks for the effort, you can please some of the people all the time, and all the people some of the time, but not all the people all the time. Whether someone likes or dislikes the split they should be thankful someone takes time to look out for the site and try and improve it. If it wasn't for people like Troy helping us; all the moaners and groaners wouldn't have a place to bi**h and post there friggin' polls at all. I like the new setup and GREATLY APPRECIATE the effort put forth to do things for the site. Again thanks Troy.

This is not directed at anyone, all I'm saying is sometimes we take things a little bit for granted when they could really be worse.
