[ryanh250ex]

i'm in the process of rebuilding a '86 Cub Cadet 826 snowblower.ugh :mad:

[heavy_d]

I'm going to be repainting a 85 Buick Regal and have a Buick 350 to put in her some day. That would be kinda rare, most of the regals built up have Chevy 350s. I would really like get a 455 or a 430, but might require quite a bit of fabrication. For now i'm stuck with the 231 and a 1968 Rochester 2-barrel with a manual choke.

[Guy400]

bansheeguy77, would you please quit following ryanh250ex and harrassing him? Nearly everytime he posts you're showing up, regardless of the thread, and bothering him. Several posts were reported the other day and the mods just sat back and watched because we didn't want to act in haste. It's been several days and we've seen at least 5-6 threads and you're in each one making snide comments. An AOL IM chat was PM'd where you clearly tell him to leave your board. You don't own EXRiders so he is as welcome here as you are. I don't care what the history of you two is on other boards but the BS stops here. Just leave him alone.
