December 6, 201311 yr Too bad it's not at least forged internals. At the end of the day it's what you feel something is worth. I also won't worry about the trans too much. You just need to drive it, that 575awhp may feel tame with the centrifugal setup, or it may be a beast and makes you buy it, haha
December 6, 201311 yr I LOVE crab legs!Only is they are boiled in crab boil. None of that steamed shit down here.
December 6, 201311 yr I would not be scared of the trans.No, but it is a downer when you read an add and except a bombproof truck only to find out the previous owner was human as well.
December 6, 201311 yr I LOVE crab legs!Only is they are boiled in crab boil. None of that steamed shit down here.If you had bigger crabs....
December 6, 201311 yr Where in new york?Olean/ friendship.J Seriously? I thought you were from Buffalo. My grandparents had 100 acres in Phillips Creek near Almond on North Road near Belmont. Do you know Palmer's pond? I spent my entire summer vacation there every year, and most weekends and holidays during the school year. I grew up down there hunting woodcock, ruffed grouse, pheasant, woodchuck, and obviously deer...
December 6, 201311 yr They have a few casinos in the Biloxi Ms area that have some decent crab legs on their buffet. Definable worth the 25 bucks.

My concern is that he built it to drive for 30k miles and sell it. Seems possible. 575 at the wheels ought to feel nice no matter the lag.
December 6, 201311 yr Any idea on the time it would take if I paid someone to swap long blocks on an Escalade? Going to price out building one.

December 6, 201311 yr I need to learn how to cook them good, SAMs club here has the biggest damn crag legs I have ever seen compared to any restaurant I have been to, even Florida crab houses.
December 6, 201311 yr I LOVE crab legs!Only is they are boiled in crab boil. None of that steamed shit down here.If you had bigger crabs....Dungenous (sp?). And go to the Florida keys every August for lobster season. Eat several warm water lobsters a month boiled in crab boil. I needs a little flavor in my food.
December 6, 201311 yr Any idea on the time it would take if I paid someone to swap long blocks on an Escalade? Going to price out building one. Year, 4wd/2wd and motor? I'll give you Alldata, Motor, and Mitchel book times.

December 6, 201311 yr She's from AZ so being outside in anything for more than a little bit under 50 and she is frozen. Should be running and shit in the snow, as well as walking around and possibly standing at a bills game.Won't be even close to NYC, rather on the western side of the state. 800+ for round trip tickets plus a renta ride for a week or so and yea it's cheaper to drive. MUCH cheaper. Plus it's nice to see more of the country.J Ducks, or Duck boots. I used to wear them hunting in the southern tier winters, and you know how nasty that is. Not the prettiest, but warm and dry.
December 6, 201311 yr Curious what about it you don't like?Mainly the smells and the texture. That 'fishy' smell or the smell of tuna turnes my stomach a bit and kills any interest in it.I have had fried haddock, large mouth bass and cod in the past and that with a shit ton of lemon and a beer batter is ok at best.J Grilled swordfish?

I know me, i can get by with a pair of thick socks and my old combat boots just fine, but her I worry about.JSomething ugg like. Those smart wool socks are awesome. I can link stuff when I'm home and not on my cellphone. Smartwools rock. I like their technical socks for hiking and wear their basic blacks all the time.

December 6, 201311 yr I need to learn how to cook them good, SAMs club here has the biggest damn crag legs I have ever seen compared to any restaurant I have been to, even Florida crab houses.The Oven on a baking sheet with boiling water added and covered with foil.

December 6, 201311 yr Any idea on the time it would take if I paid someone to swap long blocks on an Escalade? Going to price out building one.That makes the deal no longer a deal though.No, but there are a ton of them for sale for $30k or so with 50k'ish miles. If a fresh motor and FI were comparable on one of those it wouldn't be a deal, but I would feel better about my own spec as a daily driver.

Figured that since the guy paid for a custom grill, updated lights, forged wheels that he would have at least put in a complete forged rotating assembly. Pretty bummed it isn't what it looked to be.
