[DML] Re: Questions on DMC #3416 answered.. sort of

["supremeadmiralsenn" <AdmiralSenn@xxxxxxxx>]

Machine work on which part? He said it involved a lot of very careful
flycutting and that it took a LOT of time and hard work. It's not a
new block - he did this so that the car would still have the original
engine block, even if it was modified. 

Are you sure it's impossible? 

At this point I'm starting to think I should just take out the engine,
disassemble everything, and photograph every nut and bolt.. then when
that's done, go have it dyno'd again.
