    Fuck stance. Stance is for kids in skinny jeans with Justin Beiber haircuts. You don't need stance when you got swagger.

    I don't mind helping people, but I have 2 rules before I do.

    1 - it cannot be something easily googled... IE when someone asks the horsepower of a stock B18c1, it will render a smartass response coupled with "GOOGLE, NOOB"

    2 - When it is something unjustified and/or plucked out of the sky as a "might do" that will never get done. When someone asks how to change their oil and then their next thread is "how possible is it to put a dodge viper motor into a geo storm?", I assume that they will never actually put a dodge viper motor into a geo storm, therefore I must laugh at them and remind them that before they can swap a motor they should probably learn how to change oil. However, if someone comes on and has done their research and is asking technical questions about putting in a dodge viper motor, I will help, because they are A - not relying solely on other's knowledge, and B - have put enough time into it that they just might be the next crazy sonofabitch on youtube with a dodge viper motor in a geo storm.

    2a. I also don't answer questions about things that are unjustified. This thread falls into this category. If you have a motive for doing something, then let me know what it is. If you are just randomly wanting to pick my brain, I have other threads to waste my time in. So if mister OP Noob comes back in and gives some reasoning such as "I want to do an automatic swap because I would like to build the car for straight up drag racing, and am looking to build an auto trans that will handle the boost and stress of a 700whp honda", then I will help him, because it's true that in some cases, autos are better. Drag is one of them. Computers work faster than humans, no bones about it... and when big races depend on .001 seconds, you want all the advantage you can get. However, simply saying "I don't like driving a manual" is not (in my book) an acceptable reasoning for doing a lot of fabricating to fit an auto H22 in, and completely destroys the purpose of swapping in a motor that big in the first place.

    Long story short - OP, go home.

    sounds like some good reasons to me.
