    And he will not only admit that but he'll brag about it too....and call it free market capitalism. It sickens me that he would taint capitalism by associating himself with it.

    I certainly hope they pulled the top off the transmission while it was out and checked for Microblue on those gears too. If it wasn't in the engine there would be a good chance it wasn't the trans.

    I think everything but the engine was sent to MicroBlue, so it should be okay. They commented they'd pulled a wheel to check those bearings, but nothing further.

    PP power can holler all they want about other shops touching the truck, but the lack of MicroBlue on the bottom end inserts is not something that just explains away. Wish I could have got to Louisville to seen how they responded to any questions about this.

    Rank, Capitalism is an economic system and a mode of production in which trade, industries, and the means of production are largely or entirely privately owned and operated for profit! I think "Kevin" and his friends have that done to a fine art. Have some off you realised that "Kevin" might not mind all this,he is getting talked about,people are tuning in to his shows,maybe his principle is that the only bad advertising is no advertising???

    The engine bearings were sent to be Microblued and didn't end up in the truck. I saw of the picture of the trans gears at Microblue, but that doesn't mean they made it in either. I would think they would have checked the trans if they pulled a wheel off to check it, hopefully.

    Hmmm, if more than engine bearings didn't end up in "THE" truck on the first build where did they go? Maybe into "A" truck? But not "THE" truck. Is there more than "1" truck at someone else's expense?
