Unless you have the disposable income, the bang for the buck is not a smart move but we already know that. What makes it even more cool is to be in the company of folks like us, together splurging hard earned dollars on things we enjoy! It helps us resolve our inner conflict between what is wiser and what is happier! I'll make the wise decisions somewhere else.
For example, I'm struggling with the idea of a stroker to replace my old worn engine (might be cheaper to buy another car). There are cheaper solutions by far, but dammit I love THIS car.

I agree. In life, there are always more or less expensive ways to get things done. It's a little tiresome to hear people talking about hp/$ all the time. This thread is not about hp/$.

It's just that I'm reading this very interesting thread - to me and everyone else here, but then I have to read people's posts that aren't applicable and are a waste of time.

Just because you have a thought, it doesn't mean you have to say it.

I'm glad you're not biased, welcome to the forum.

I thought of doing a stroker DIY but abandoned the idea. It seems like doing it right is beyond the ability of a DIY-er
