Unhappy No more ported TBs

I will no longer be porting. I have accepted a job offer that I could not turn down and was just giving everyone a heads up. I really hate to do this but would rather quit now than get overrun- like I am almost getting now- and working a new job that will take an unknown amount of my time. I have orders that will be filled and will no longer be taking any more. I have a thread in the internal section and would like this sticky as well please. Thanx for everyone and everything LS1TECH. I will continue to be apart of the LS1TECH community though

Good luck, sad to see you go. I was so close to convincing my wife to let me send in my heads to get ported after seeing the results on a mostly stock car. So is your new job automotive related?

I will piddle here and there on what not because I like it so much, The main thing is for me to let everyone know that I have to pretty much stop at least for the moment. Besides I have like 3 months worth of heads to do lol.

No but close I still have a couple lingering in shipping to me at the moment. I will try to still do this after I evaluate my spare time with this new job.

Well this is what I get for procrastinating... I was planning on sending my TB to you in the next couple months, but it looks like it ain't happening, at least for now. If you'll still accept limited TB porting orders, I'd be up for that. Good luck though on your new job Bo. I'm sure you'll do well at it.
