I hemmed and hawed, and decided to make the page people will link to
from my sig (and wherever else) strictly about AHPBBFM, and not at all
about me, and just put a subtle link to my silly crap on the bottom.
I'm going to re-do my sig, also.
It just made sense to separate them, to keep things on-topic. I also
re-named the links repository links page, and did some text alterations
to it, understanding that Ford Mavericks et al. are not on-topic.

Looks good, and a good idea on the change.
BTW: for the 5.0 & 5.7 section;
Ford refers to their 351 as a 5.8,
while Chevy refers to their 350 as a 5.7...

Thanks for the feedback. Something was just plain wrong with it, and
it was my own nonsense muddling things up.
And a good reminder on that that 5.7 thing, I also thought "Chevy?".
Maybe I'll just re-name it "Windsor small block info" or something like
that... there either is or will be stuff in there for the 221, 260,
289, 302, 351... did I miss any? People have 260s, and someone's gotta
have a 221 somewhere =)

On that same note, Just a suggestion, I would put these 3 topics at or near
the top and in this order, as they are the main substance of our on topic
discussions.
Maybe under topic titles? Engine related, chassis related, body and paint
related, interior related etc.

you could always add a "users" or "participants" button to list links or
directly provide webspace on the various users and their projects. i
have no idea how much webspace you have but something like a users
section could eat it up especially if you allowed photos

time being.

These are fantastic suggestions, thanks a lot!!! And I think it would
only make sense to link these sections to the posting rules...
