personally i think the i beam is better but some others may think the h beam is better.
I know iv turned crower i beam rods every color in the crayon box because the motor lost oil pressure and they didnt break.

 

no im not saying is a peice of crap, just saying its never fun to have to work on your own stuff.

 

I've always been told the I beams were much stronger. And looking at parts from summit magazine, they're a hell lot more expensive too.

 

well yes and no. I think i'd rather do my own work, then I enjoy the gratification of working on my own car. Like with rebuildin my trans, replacing the oil pan gasket, rear main and putting in a king cobra clutch... i would never appreciate all that work if i didn't do it myself. not to mention, all the work gives me experience towards my career

I never said you said that [8D]

 

most people would agree the i beam is better but then they are some that think h beam are better. thats the way it goes in the racing bussiness, every body has their likes and dont likes.

 

i wish i was in a position to discuss what connecting rods to put in my engine. lol, as far as i'm concerned as long as there are connecting rods in there still doin what they are supposed to i'm happy

lmao

 

i wasnt sure when you said "its not like its a peice of crap..."
just letting you know i wasnt dissen your stuff or anything.
its great to be able to do your own work nothing like it.
you going to school to be a tech?

 

in a street driven car probley really couldnt tell a difference, but in racing every little thing counts so guys are willing o do what it takes.

 

guys i just wanted to remind yall that this thread had 0 posts 2 hours ago. we brought it back to life. go me!!!!

 

I know ya weren't dissin it! I just mean it's not because it's junk that it needs work, it's because it's got miles on it. More or less me rambling on lol

but yes I am going to school to be a technician. I spent 2 years at a high school auto class that was college level, and I just completed one year of my community college 1/2 auto 1/2 gen ed. I'm goin for an Associates in applied science. Ultimately I'm goin for my Masters, but that's a bridge I'll cross when I get there.

I'm in the process of being hired by a ford Dealer as a porter/parts driver/shuttle driver. Gettin my foot in the door of a dealer!

The more experience I get, the better. Also restoring a 69 chevy impala with my dad
