You guys know the funny thing about all of this mess? It is only brought about because shaunna wanted to work for Archie and he got his little heart broken when Archie said NO ! That is the only reason for the stupid little vids making fun of Archie. Some people would just say "oh well let me apply somewhere else " but shaunna must still be picking up the peices of his shattered dream. To be Archies 2nd hand man thats all he wanted (tear) Is that so much to ask  . Poor shaunna , keep your head up buddy . There is a light at the end of the tunnel. LOL ------------------
ARCHIES JUNK IS FASTER THAN SHAUNNA'S JUNK

Yes. You maybe correct but, there is one thing you've over looked,......the car "IS" Archie's and not a customers car. It's one thing to call someone on their business motor swap claims of certain "expected" HP and the true number are not there and now the customer is pissed. In this case, Archie has "play'd" you into thinking the motor was something else. When you're dealing with Archie, think Chess not checkers.

Yeah, that was so clever, I'm still trying to figure out why he claimed 377 cid.
BTW, "insurgents"?  Oh my God. Somebody likes the drama.

Like I said, "Think Chess, not checkers." Archie laid and waited for the insurgents to strike knowing that someone would catch the bait without every viewing the motor prior to popping off a few shots. Archie then added more bait to the line, hooking more insurgents alone the way before he "pops" the news regarding the engine.
Tell me now, who looks stupid. The person who thought what he saw was the correct engine and posted a thread and insurgents who took the bait or Archie? Man thats "classic baiting 101."

I'm still going with Archie. And with all the "insurgent" talk, you're not looking like the sharpest tool in the shed, either.

How did this thread become about shaun? I don't think he's even posted in this thread.
FIEROPHREK, you were wondering the same thing that I was on page 1. Here's your post:

Ok so I said I wouldnt post anymore on this thread but I just read the TERMS OF USE policy and it states......
"You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this messageboard to post any material which is knowingly false and/or defamatory, inaccurate, abusive, vulgar, hateful, harassing, obscene, profane, sexually oriented, threatening, invasive of a person's privacy, or otherwise violative of any law."
Defamatory: tending to disgrace or lower public opinion of a person or to harm a person's reputation
Harassing: To impede and exhaust (an enemy) by repeated attacks or raids, To irritate or torment persistently.
Now archies lively hood is his business correct? So explain to me why this thread wasnt closed early on again. I mean the Guys over at RTF hacked Cliff's business website and emailed some clients of his and he gets a lawyer.

Correct me if I am wrong but isnt this thread/attack on archie driving away potential customers?
Clif, Thanks for finally closing it! It cost me a bunch of NEG's but I was raised to stand up for what you believe in.[This message has been edited by ambfiero (edited 06-11-2007).]

Just out of curiosity what is your opinion of the following other cars/engines that were dyno'd at Daytona on the same day?
Like:
3.4DOHC dyno'd 158rwhp
3800SC dyno'd 170rwhp
3.4DOHC with nitrous dyno'd 227rwhp
