However I have no issues with someone else...oh say, maybe someone in NJ who is in the SVX business, applying what I'm learning to his own business plan, and making money from it. Welcome to the USA.

If I wanted to keep it 'secret', I'd never have posted about it to begin with. So IMO, all you guys are more than welcome to whatever knowledge can be extracted from my experiments.

How about this Bob... You collaborate with Tom on getting to the point to beable to replicate what you do to your test engines. Tom is (from what I've heard) a great SVX mechanic and I'd trust him to build me an engine off of directions given by you. That is if I just can't be bothered to do it myself ... If I have a garage, lift, jacks and all the tools I'll need then in about 2 years I'll be doing this myself... If not then I'll be paying someone else to do it... And while they do that, I'll be swapping in a 6MT to handle the power ...

What I'm saying Bob is that if you don't wan to make a business outta doing these NA engines, maybe Tom would want to work with you and make it easier on you... Like he said, you are doing things with the engine that I was dreaming about 5 years ago, but had no idea of how to get there... Now I see that it might actually be a reality
