Well congratulations to Brian then.

He's still crazy, but at least now we know why.

he's put a lot of work into it so rationally he should probably keep it and just put it aside for now, but when the squeeze is on between work, hobby and a new family, it can be hard to bring yourself to let the hobby go if temptation is near. sometimes people need to find a way to just cut it free completely

still, chances are if he does cut clean then in a couple of weeks he'll regret it and start anew.

Brian and his wife just had a little girl a month or so ago and sometimes priorities get in the way of personal fun.

Well said and very true. Didn't know.

Still, get er' running and enjoy at least one spin after all that work.

Having recently had a kid, I know exactly where he's coming from. It is just a truck.

Digging up this old thread.....

I hope i didn't skim over it but did we ever get a ARP part # for the studs?

Rick (landtank) was in contact with ARP lately about replacement studs for our engines and had posted something in his turbo thread. Check there or PM him.

I needed this for my upcoming build.
