Good evening Manny,
Maybe a future upgrade then - a different head! I must always, always, always remember that I am wanting a solid, reliable build and that I must have confidence and respect for your abilities in this matter. I'm sure it would be possible to hit the number but it might not be a safe mod in the end and that is worth so much more to me in the end. I want a engine that is going to give me many years of enjoyment and if it doesn't reach an even number in the end who cares!! It will mindblowing whereever it ends up after the project is completed.
Actually, I think it may be something akin to my weight. 200 or 199, it is a mental thing but makes no difference in how I feel or how my clothes fit. 799.9 or 800.1 rwhp would not make any noticable difference to a driver like me, nor probably for that matter 780 to 800.......like my weight it is just a number and does not really reflect anything as the difference is too small.
Yes, it is a bit of a shock and a bit of a disappointment but in this case I have no regrets at all and I am glad that we tried to see what might have been possible between us rather than having thought later in life about about what might have been instead.
Maybe it will be a temporary thing, maybe in 6 months or a year we'll see how we are feeling and will go from there. Maybe when my parenting demands are a bit different we can re-evaluate things then. But I love and respect my gf too much to not allow her to make this decision and to support her as best I can as I know it could not have been an easy one for her to have reached.
And if nothing else happens, I know that I am a much better man and person as a result of the love that she showed for me over the past two years. She was the breath of fresh air that I needed when I was having trouble breathing...........
Cheers,
Garry
