I heard that long signatures blow head gaskets worse than high psi blowers...jk...anyway, shorten that sig up a little man, theres nothin but bs mostly in there anyway.

I had a impala ss gasket, i dont think any are better than others, go with the cheapest in my opinion which ends up being the impala i believe, from jason cromer

A4 #6 You're next! Bwahahahahaha!

Maybe that for instance, what the hell is that all about, also you can put evertying inline except on different lines. Trust me you will get a whole lot more **** from others than you will from me, and also board moderators, notice when you are making your sig it says in bold, italic, higlighted letters, "please keep sig under 5 lines."

dont get pissed at me, im just a messenger, just thought it might be funny to crack a joke about it instead of just saying shorten your ****in sig up *******, which i wouldnt say since i dont know you, so lighten up, shorten the sig, and evertyihngs cool

Ah, don't sweat it. I wasn't mad. Just wondered what I did wrong.

I never read anything about sigs, so, since you pointed it out, I will reduce my sig. LOL

Hey, Toledo is only about 2 or 3 hours from where I live. Cool. Did you know a 2 time UFC champion is from your city? Mark Kerr is his name. Big ol' boy. Great wrestler.

Nah, don't know what school he went to. Kerr is in his early 30s now. He recently had a documentary on HBO called "The Smashing Machine". Great fighter. I always liked watching him. He had some probs that hurt his career. Hear he is going to make a comeback soon.

He was 2x UFC heavyweight tournament champion, World Vale Tudo heavyweight champion, ADCC World Open Weight Champion(Submission wrestling tourney where some rich sheik invites the worlds top grapplers to compete in a HUUUUUUUGE tourney), and competed recently in Pride Fighting Championships.

Check this link to see a little info about him since he is from your city.

he lives in Phoenix AZ now, but was born and raised in Toledo.

Why not replace your head gaskets with Impala gaskets? They are .029" in thickness (thinner than stock), and will net a few tenth bump in compression.
