I don't think he was scared to do it, it's just much less time consuming when you don't have to completely strip your block.

I have read a million other places that vitaras will stick out of the block even in a d15b, your setup was together and running? What happened that you blew a hole in one of them.

Yeah, I wondered why people were scared to do it, took me like 20-30 mins and mine was done.

I did an A6 with the vitaras and the I beams form tunere toys. i notched the block but it looks like i didnt really have to. That and at TDC i noticed that they dont sit flush with the deck of the blok. Its off a couple millimemters.

Nothing bad i hope.
