I know someone run a d16z6 to 11.56 sec on the 1/4 mile, and run a nuformz block guard since 5 years it's daily driven

I'm so sick of hearing about blockguards. I hate those ------- things. I was one of those people it didn't work for.

I'm using posts on the motor I'm about to put in, but my post count has nothing to do with my intellegence. I think with enough money you could make either of them beneficial, but I'm poor and posted.

Both are definitely proven to work and def strengthen the cyl walls. The block guard will provide more support at the cost of overheating if its not a well made block guard. Posts work just as well and you dont have the overheating problem.. you just have to do them right(Please refer to Kyles write up for this)

and just like stealth here my high post count should not suggest to you that I'm smart, I really don't know much, but I cut my own hair for those pictures.
