If you're still just learning why do you continue to defend your wrong theorys when you basically just admitted you dont' know what you're talking about? I just asked how many V8s you've been around since you talk like you've been working on so many different setups. Mainly I was wondering if the V8s you have seen were carbed. But you go into this whole speal about how I mentioned your age and I'm just attacking you. That line wasn't even an insult. But as it turns out you've been around them but never really tuned them. If you haven't even tuned them, how do you really know how well they idle? ...ok, I don't really care about that anymore. If you say they idle at 700 rpm, then fine. Lets just talk about L28's. I like the straight six better anyway.
its not that i havent been around them, i dont have as much experience as you perhaps in tuning them...nothing related to never seeing a badass v8 with it all modded, i goto the race track, i have friends with modded 8s im just saying that i havent seen a v8 idle at 300, (sounds kinda farfetched but not impossible). and what "theories" have i been wrong about? without simply being mistaken or misinformed...i dont think i have any posts about some "theory", i only post what i know, not what i think, and if i am misinformed or mistaken, i expect to be corrected, not treated like im a some "dumbass kid who doesnt know **** even though he thinks he does..." if i dont know something, i wont post it, as to not sound like an ***..

i think that you should be a lil more careful in how you word your criticism..
"Really now, at 17 years old how many V8s have you actually seen?"

to me that sounds like its undermining due to the fact i am 17..like i havent seen enough cars or something

on another note, i never said i didnt know what i was talking about or that i was wrong about anything, i know my car as much as i can obtain without literally tearing it apart just to learn one design, i merely stated that i am unknown to these cars because i work on mostly american. doesnt mean i dont know, or at least understand what i am talking about.

i mean no disrespect in any way, i am only giving my input on the situation... i gave you criticism on how you acted, never once thought that you were not an educated man. i just think that your presentation on your criticism was a lil more harsh.

i do agree, i like the straight six more myself

thankx
