Message	consideration; I have had to rebuild my block 3 times. I did something wrong somewhere. I am currently in the process of arranging to have a block built and installed for me. I will not ever build another TT motor. If I would have found Andy (Booztd 3) years ago, I would have saved a TON of money. Lesson learned for me. lol Who is more foolish? The fool or the foolish following the fool? Jodi
