Default To Contact AintQik for Tech

Guys, sorry to say but I have sold my 05 and am building a 67 Camaro right now. I'm still around but not as much as I used to be. I'll be in another Vette soon

I still get great tech questions from folks and I feel bad if a few days have passed before I'm on to check messages. I know how it feels to be in the middle of an engine swap and have a question. If you want a fast response, my home email is rcilurso@hotmail.com or you can always PM me for my number.

Many of you are teaching me things everyday, but I still am able to help a large number of people through PMs. I'd like to continue to do that.

If you want some pretty cool high res shots, shoot me a PM or email. It was a cool car, but it was done and I love the build. The new owner is going to hurt some feelings

Did I mention the big block in the new car has run 10.9 here at Bendi? That's 9s at sea level

The post was in response to 3 members that had asked me a question they were stuck on. It was time sensitive and I missed them. I don't think I'm some god here. You can take your stupid attitude and pound it in your backside. What have you contributed to this community? F'n asshat.

I've read a number of your posts, but don't know who you are. Nice offer and good luck with your camaro. I've seen a couple late 60's Camaros updated to LSx motors & T56 trannies that make me drool.

Wow, someone was loved.

The aftermath of this head massage will be unbearable during dinner for years to come.

Oh, RJ, can I get a nice 3'x7' poster of your car for my entrance hall? It will go nicely with my 8' tall waterfall in there.

Don't sweat the wise cracks....We appreciate all you help with here, and I for one especially appreciate your unselfish sacrifice of how you helped save lives and serve our country in Iraq, and how you continue to spend your days in protection of our people and pastime on a modest AF salary...especially when you could being rolling in the $$$ with a successful performance shop.
