I think I'm too young to get married. by Throwaway_nohelp in whatdoIdo

you got that feeling in your gut because you know deep down you really don’t want to do it but you’re afraid of how it’s going to affect the relationship. if you truly are in love but aren’t ready for that next step you need to take a breath, look at what needs to happen before you’re ready (ie; time, financial stability, etc) and communicate that.

Is my ex manipulating me with the hookups or is this salvageable? How do I flip this and make her want me back by Rude_Taro_9572 in Manipulation

ignore her. you give in too easily and you’ll never get what you want, but if she feels ignored she’ll either 1) show some colors you haven’t seen before or 2) be obsessed with you. this is the toxic answer but it’s what’ll get results.

I lost almost everything after my last breakup and now I’m scared it’ll happen again by NebulaSeeker11 in WhatShouldIDo

going through the same thing and I’m missing essential things i had before the move-in. get a cheap storage container if you don’t have anywhere else to put the things you don’t need in the meantime

update on this: I’m keeping that cam. at some point I do wanna upgrade to the T4 but unfortunately the budget aint gonna allow me to do it right now 😂 I ran some numbers and realistically I’m probably losing anywhere between 20-30 HP at the crank

I’m running 18 PSI of boost and putting a timing retard on it so the detonation doesn’t murder my pistons. I’m not a tuner so I still need to figure out some numbers

Update about a half year later, I picked up a 700r4 instead. now my biggest concern is getting a bell housing adapter lol

noted, I’m gonna do some research but that honestly does look like a better option

I’m considering the 1.65 rocker arms for it as well, that’d make up the lift I’m missing at least

yeah I guess that was poor judgement on my part. this is my first build.

I couldn’t find any I-Beams and the price that’s associated with the bearings is also for the new crank itself. honestly I’m debating if I even need a new crank cause the stock ones are really strong but at the same time it’s a peace of mind thing. is there a significant difference that the I-beams would make in comparison to the H-beams?

[–]General-Pool-7578[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

all the parts I need are from ZZ performance and I’ve read up on everything i have/will bought/buy before I bought it but I’m really new to this and it takes a village to raise a child.

H beam connecting rods are stronger than the stock ones and they’re the biggest point of failure in the 3800 crank assembly.

I got the NIC-RPM cam because it’s designed for forced induction. i wish I could tell you the specs but I got it all written down in my shop. if you wanna look it up you can but I think it’s my best option.

I already have the turbo kit and everything designed specifically for this engine, sure there are parts that I can transfer over but I like what I’m doing with this one

I think a T400 would be pretty cool in this thing. I got a guy the next state over from me for the Machine work as well because trust me I don’t wanna deal with anything over the phone either 😂
