Two reasons I see....too many friends bs-ing and the mods, only doing as they are told.

But not letting people speak openly on a part or a topic that does not fit into the mainstream world gets the axe.

Its a double edge sword, when I got back into the car world only one person on the site had the balls to tell me I was screwing up 8 different ways and he was right. So it cost me a crankshaft....instead of the moparts PC response, if one would of said "hey you idiot your going to eat a crank" I would of took two steps back.

Now theres sites like the bullet or mine for instance where people can speak there mind and sort out the facts.

This is why moparts is refered to by many as the mopar church site.

Countless business owners have told me directly they stay away from here because its one sided and so much duplicity is present.

I've been posting here for sometime now and it seems as of late that I post something and either I get no replies or one or two. I've asked questions about stroked small blocks builds, I think I had maybe 10, asked about what needed to be done to an A-833 to standup to 600-700 Hp. I think I got 3 or 4.. I don't understand am I asking wrong, or is it that no-body runs this stuff.. I doubt the latter. I come here looking for help as many others do. I dont know everything and I appreciate the answers that members give, just seems to be lacking lately. Maybe its me

But I'd like to hear some small block stroker builds. 340 or 318.. And what can I do to a A-833 to make it live at bout 600hp drag/street car. Thanks John

Not every one on here has the same parts as you or me Some have no parts or experiences other than reading articles written by other people(some scribes with little or no expereinces either ) Some don't care and respond anyways Knowing what advise to use and what not to use is the hard part As far as how to make the 833 hold up on the street and strip my way is to use a small enough tire or slipper clutch to allow some slippage on the line and on the one two gear changes Sometimes you have to be the innovater and strike out on your own with out guidance. A old freind of mine use to say that advice is worth what you pay for it Do you want my mailing address to send the check to Don't give up on this crowd, there are some really good people on here that will offer sound advice, not always on every post tho, unlike me

Cab, that is a very passive-aggressive statement to the board. I take it you would like to call someone out for something by those statements?

Just curious, not trying to critique.

As far as the OP's question, I think there are lots of people with good experience (sometimes differing from one to another) that withhold it because they are tired of getting knocked by the experts. For instance, a while back someone asked about clutch discs. I responded that my Zoom clutch didn't last very long and Rowin4 begged to differ. Did we fight about it? Heck no; simply two people with two experiences. I think the problem arises when two people have a different experience that is not easily quantifiable and each thinks he/she is 100% right. And that's when the begins...and informative members stop posting.

I dont really understand ... was your question answered
or are you looking for a thread that gets 500 hits.
As to the 833 thing... sorry I havent run one is 20+
years. As to the SB strokers, well I have a 9.2 deck
3.79 stroke Eagle 6.125 rod, W-9 heads, 14.1:1 CP
pistons, .700 /286, 112 in at 108 roller, with a
dry sump, re-worked 420 intake to take a 1050 dom
with E-85, custom home made step headers.... the
whole thing is a pretty simple and durable engine.
When it coses to things like what does everyone have
for a SB stroker there are alot of others that have
more main stream than my stuff(and probably make
more power) so thats why I dont tend to answer those questions
As for the mods being one sided.... I really dont
think I am... I try to be even but I do let things
slide but some things have to be addressed.... if
some think this is the church group..... you know
where the other site is if you want that type of language
...... OK I done

Mr P I never said anything about the Mods. I just figured there were more than 2 or 3 small blocks running around out there. Maybe its all a secret. Thanks for you responce. I'm looking at maybe doing a 318 stroker with a small turbo now. I have a bunch of 318x blocks and a small 90mm turbo
