I think I see what he's getting at...sort of. Dont agree 100% but do to a certain extent.

I think he's saying a lot of people follow what the last guy did blindly just because the last guy did it. People might be getting beat down for trying something new...But that's usually becuse its been tried by someone else and it failed.

I really dont agree, I've seen tons of innovation here over the years. Heck we got a guy swapping in a 3.5 DOHC into a gen 1 SWB right now and several dudes who did 4.3 swaps and turbo swaps.....guys making custom bumpers etc...yea we have a lot of the same mods among us, but that's what we have available.

As I {and others) get better at fabricating stuff, I'm sre we'll see some more cool and new stuff.
