But did you have people showing up at your door all the time, telling you why you should join them and how you are wrong? I did, not fun: "Please leave my doorstep or I will cut your arms off and beat you to death with them."
No kidding, it left me sour, just don't know when to quit.
This is the last place I want to be solicited
I would lose it.
Freedom of religion is great, no doubt.

So basicaly what i am getting out of this thread is that most of you spend just and much or close to what a full kit from a manufacture costs and spent much more time and effort to piece the kit together right? Guess i kinda answered my own question with reading this thread. BTW great skills, shopping and kits you guys have built.

As far as me paying a mod, I was just kidding, Scott gets no more of my monies. That part was influenced by another comment of yours regarding banning warnings without a banstick...thought you would see the humor in that

1. Cheap-piece together anything and everything for as cheap as possible...lots of those. Take a little bit of time and effort to piece it together.
2. Used kits-when you want a kit but want to save a few hundred bucks, you stalk the classifieds and anything that comes up you snag it. Take a little while and you can save some money, but can make mistakes and buy wrong stuff (ask Saml01)
3. DIY fabrication-when there just isn't anything on the market that is ideal for you. Spend more than on most kits unless you do all the work on your own. Take a lot of time and effort and money.

I tend to let things decide their own fate I guess.
and yeah, you can buy a kit or spend as much on your own setup OR you can go super cheap and maybe get something fair and semi-reliable. the choice is yours.
I did the non-kit-spendy version because the journey is more fun than the destination. but at this point, I'm pretty over working on my car.

unless you get lucky like I did and find a professionally-built custom manifold for dirt cheap.
