Sorry, I cant go away until I've explained the other side of the equation..Works like this:

We have Noobs on one side.....Most everyone else in the middle ....then we have the Curmudgeons, these are the grumpy OL' farts who assume that they have the tacit approval of everyone on the forum to punish anyone who asks a question not up to their standards. Ahem... So as I have been officially dismissed, by the head Curmudgeon I shall officially slink away..

I for one wear my noobishness with pride.. and my fiesty nature..

Carry on Sir, But when OC gets back you have to give him back the Hat.

(hope you had as much fun with this as I did..)

Yea, I guess this guy figures there are many "curmudgeons" here, after all he said we're a "good ol boy club" and as an added benefit, I got called an "elitist"

Not just a 409, but the only 409. Then it was a 400. This and he calls himself the "L98 Guru" on other forums.

I can see how they could be confused.............

I do believe that at one point it was an LSX swap as well... complete with pictures. That whole discussion is what got the Honda guy banned.
