I have engine build formulas that has proven track records, with 28 years of constant development and improvement.
Most people are looking for just that, a formula that works.
My purpose on this forum is to ensure that the least number of DIY builders travel down the rabbit hole to never never land.

That's great. I'm very happy for you, your formulas and your 28yrs of development and contribution to the community. I trust that you've helped a lot of people with their projects by providing advice and with no compensation or thanks.
I'm not a shop so I only plan on this one engine and one car like many DIY folks here. Relatively speaking this one engine/car is quite an undertaking for me. I guess if you're trying to protect me from myself then I owe you a thanks; your intentions are good. At the same time I should tell you I've been DIY'ing pretty successfully for quite a long time. I've picked up a few tricks and I look 10x's before I leap. If I screw this one up then it's all on me and I'm okay with that. I have a back-up plan and I would suggest anyone trying anything unproven do the same.
If the experiment here ends in catastrophe for me and my delicate magnesium case, I hope people have an opportunity to learn as I share my open book of notes, calculations, reasoning and methods.
