Hello all, I figured I'd just let everyone know that I adopted the BB Cad section (moderator)

If there is ANY concerns reguarding the room or any of the content, feel free to drop me a PM anytime

Since this room has been without a dedicated mod for a long time (if ever?) I figured to try a couple things to help it out a bit.

I will be making a thread with a bunch of FAQ and any other information reguarding the 368/425/472/500. The thread will be sticky at the top and locked so it stays fresh and clean. When there is information to be added, just send it to me and I'll throw it in.

So I am asking everyone, if you have any hints, tips or tricks, issues, fixes, common asked questions....basically anything and everything reguarding the BB Cad's, to either send me in a PM, or post it in this thread, this thread will be left open for everyone to put forward their knowladge, once we start getting stuff in here, I'll move it over to the FAQ thread. Once there are some replies and I have content to put in that thread, I'll create it.

A few of the things I want to do is make a year-to-year list of any changes that went with the engines and power output etc... I'll start to go through all the threads in this section and pick out the ones that have valuable information and get them ready to go in, but I need the help of every here

Anything you would like to see go in the main BB Cad database/FAQ, just let me know

Congrats on becoming a mod! Must be really cool, I'm a bit jealous

Well not really, you've been around here much longer than myself.

This being my favorite part of the forum, you've got my full support and I'll try to keep my mind open to candidates for this FAQ thread, etc.

Thanks

You, are very smart for your age as well, when reading your posts and talking to you, I would never think you were 16 y/o.... you remind me alot of myself, when I was 16 I was always posting in every section of a Grand Am club (now I just post in off-topic... great people there) but I would always get the "are you REALLY 16 y/o?" in fact most people thought I was about 20 until I posted and told everyone that I just got my learners permit

Yeah dude, anything that you could help out with will be great.... I know this V8-6-4 500 conversion is a huge hit right now, I myself don't know much about the swap, so I'll try to find out, but if we can get more info, that will definitly be going in

You're welcome, and thanks man for the kind words, I appreciate that immensely! Even though you are older than me, I feel the same way about you, and others on the forum. I feel kind of weird saying that to someone who is older than me, but you get the drift...it's kind of odd to anyone I guess. I think I've just found something that interests me and that I can actually do. No sports, etc for me!

Around here, basically because I'm 16, I don't know what I'm doing. I get that a lot when I offer to fix, replace, service, or take a look at someone's something. Oh well, I don't take it as an offense, but really a compliment, that I'm more knowledgable than normal for my age. Kind of cool I guess.

I've been keeping up with the V 8-6-4 conversion as best as I can. I'll try to read it back over anyways. If this guy makes it work, I could try and summarize it a bit instead of a cut 'n paste of what is already a 7 page topic.

Cheers!

Congrats Nightwolf, on your becoming a Moderator. To you and terrible one, don't feel bad because of your knowledge at your current age. Many people will appreciate you both for being so helpful and insightful. Once again congrats.

It would be cool if everything was in link form, so I could just link all the topics/FAQ in 1 neat reply instead of actually using the replies for the information. I'll have to see what I can do, otherwise everything will just be kept within the thread.

BTW the thread is made, it is at the top, kind of a quick name, but i think it works. If anyone has any other ideas for a name, feel free to let me know

I think the name is fine. It says what it is.

I agree that the link form would be cool. Good idea for saving space and being able to navigate through the threads in there when looking for something specific, etc.

Do you mind opening it up for a bit so I could post the Torque Pig article? I could PM it all to you if necessary.

Congrats Nightwolf! I can't think of a better person to be mod for this section. You are very intelligent, insightful, and kind. I look forward to the changes you make to this section, it is a very important one after all!

No, lets try to all get along and keep the personal issues out of the technical forums and stick to PM/e-mail

. Make it easy for me

* "no" as in don't do it.... not "no I do not mind"

Send me a private message if you want a good smackdown. It's not fair to the board to load it up with petty crap.

However its always a fruitless battle without an audience.
