Yes thats the key--I am upset, very mad and cant live with myself knowing that I have not been able to make a SBC Fiero produce 250 HP and run high 13s in the 1/4 all for 10K. I cant figure out what I am doing wrong in this whole engine swapping thing. Maybe if I hire some fellas to do the work for me it will work better and while they are here I will give them a saw and bondo and see what they can whip up for me. Damit~~~

See this is the Problem--People brinning up names in a Thread like you just did. The guy you named isnt even on the Forum and hasnt posted anything in this Thread. So why bring someones name into a Thread that isnt present? I am not the one that brought up the name of the choptop owner in this Thread because I didnt see it being right. Hell all I stated was that there was a local chop that was flawed and then names came out by other people. How can I criticize someones work if I didnt bring any names into the Thread? Hell even if I did criticize the work then they could take it as constructive criticism and learn from it instead of going off like a certain person always does when you mention something could be better.
The T-Top chop was I mentioned was an inside joke that only a few people would have gotten in the Thread. I had a CBJ coded T-Top that was T-boned a while back and I parted it out. I performed a roof removal on it when some friends where out gettting some work done on there car. I have no desire to attempt a chop top for namy reasons. I really dont care for the looks of them, a am a taller guy, I dont do body work, ect. I am a shade tree mechanic that can make a Fiero go fast so I will stick to spinning the wrenches. If you wanna see what I have done in this area then you cant find pictures of my swap on here. I will have a complete LS4 swap done soon so I can offically be called a "V-8 Person".

How quickly we forget……..You posted this a few pages back. And Mike posted back on page 1 or 2.

I just happen to have looked over a Mike N. glass chop this weekend and I still have to say his chop is hands down the best I have seen. I have a feeling in the near future that a chop done by " The Other Guy" will be getting nice glass windows and also will be getting the Pass side part of the chop corrected beings its doesnt match the other side. Glass is the only way to go so its time others stepped up and spent the money and got away from plastic windows that you have to hold when closing. |

And a little later you said

The Pass NB section if you are looking from behind the car doesnt match the DRV side in the way that is set. I noticed this on a NB chop that is local and was done a few year ago. Then at the 25th I noticed the same defect on the Stinger that was done many many years ago. Looks like the mesurement they use for that side versus the other side is off and hasnt been changed. You can really notice the differance if you stand being the car about 30 foot or so. I might be able to get a picture of the local car if its needed. |

So much for not bringing up names.
It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out you plan on taking Will’s car to Mike to have him attempt to put his windows in. and you will say he was just fixing Archie’s flaws when he ends up re-chopping it to get them to work.....................

"You don't own a choptop" How do you now smart guy? I sold my chop a few months ago. I sold it for the same reason I'd hate to have a lopsided chop. Before I chopped the car it was T-boned in the pass side. The car creaked and popped as it drove up the driveway, it was never repaired right. To finish it I would have had to cannibalize about 50% of the cab of another fiero.
"You have never seen the defect for yourself" But I've seen the car which is more than most who try to claim its not lopsided. I repeatedly stated I didn't notice the lopsided roof because I still think its a possibility its just a optical illusion which is part of the reason a new clean thread was started where no mudslinging had been started yet.
"You start a new thread on the subject" Because the window thread went off topic and was the wrong place to discuss lopsided chops.
I tried to respect this thread and all the people trying to discuss glass windows, but you people dragged it into the trash can.

These bullies grow-up not knowing "how-to" behave with others thus they lash out at all others by swearing, fighting, intimidation, when that doesn't work they use insults (name calling). This is a common them among all of them, only this time their Internet bullies - Dr. Phil (hehe).
The flip side of this type of behavior is "jealousy." Archie touched on their behavior two pages back.

Could you been any more condescending? I'll bet the view is real nice up there on your tower. Just be careful you don't any more full of RFT hate, or you might fall off and end up at their level, and it sounds like that just kill you. Then how will Archie pay the mortgage?

WOW--The only name I saw that I posted in the Thread was Mike N. and that was it. Did I miss something or am I not seeing it? I did mention the Stinger as a comparision but thats about it.
If you read back a few post--You will see what I said about there will be 100 excuses once the proof is out there. We can put yours as #1 on the list.
