I've met plenty of "those" guys myself. Most of the time it's with people unfamiliar with the changes in the new Gen III and Gen IV engines from standard SBC's.

 

You mean i could of had a 454 all along???

 

definately what I would do

 

Yea, like the 6 Bolt Mains and the 22ft/lbs in the Rockers..lol

 

Best thing is is to have some fun with it.Tell him you car has the double over the head crams. Because it was built as a racecar it has: rearview mirror delete, no speedometer and no reverse gear installed from the factory. Wind the fool up and watch him spin.

 

People are so stupid. I know so many people that are exactly the same. I work with half of them. I just nod my head and say umm hmm or most of the time i just ignore those tards.

 

When people talk about cars which I do not know about, I more or less say "I have no clue how to work on a 1992 honda hatch". But if you have an LT1 I can find the anwser!

 

guy sounds like a tool but antifreeze does run through your throttle body unless you do the tb bypass

 

I knew a lot of guys like that when i was in highschool. I showed them the 390fe in my Ford truck and told them it was a 300 six banger, they believed me and told me that I should have got a v8 so my truck would have more power.

 

my friend still trys to tell me my LT1 was designed by ford.

 

I don't mention H22's, B16's or any of the other Honda alphabet to Honda guys because I really don't know what I'm talking about and don't want to come off as an ***. More people should be this way.

I've met people who told me that their brother bought a '67 Camaro new and it had a 350 automatic combo when I knew that it was a 327 Powerglide.

Also heard of the magical Chevy 350 Big Block, the 440 Mopar Hemi, and the Camaro SS that came from the factory with a 454 Big Block. Utter BS but the people have to cram their "knowledge" down your throat. I've won many pizzas in bets this way.

My best was betting that Ford had a Hemi Mustang. The Boss 429 proved me right and got another free pizza. Most people won't bet money so I take what I can get.

Prove your buddy wrong and tell him to stop putting his foot in his mouth or learn the subject before he speaks. You'll be helping him out.

 

Ive heard guys saying Firehawks are faster than regular T/A. They both have same engine, transmission and rear end. The suspension is not much different. Why would it be faster?

 

^^^ its the decals man! And the wheels weigh less!! Adds like 20hp!!!

 

Wow i bet he stayed at the Holiday Inn Express the night before he shared how much he learned about being a dumbass with you. Lol some people are just amazing.

 

What i like is going to a test and tune night.99.4% of the folks there are not regular racers. i hang back while shes in the pit road and just laughing my butt off at all the crap
99% of the guys try to tell her about the car.And they dont even have there own car or its at the shop.Alot of good laughs for sure.BTW if your so smart what your car at the shop for anyway?

 

This guy in my class is the same way.. he has some p.o.s 67 mustang convertible with a 289ci SBF and he told me it's really a 350 - he bored out a 289 to a 350... I was like, you know that's not possible right? He's like yeah it is.. oh, he also has a 750cfm 4 barrel double pumper carb on his 289 and he claims its just perfect.. thats big block territory lol. AND to top it all off, he has an x-box steering wheel as his steering wheel in his mustang - no joke. a kid in my class took a pic and is going to post it on here.. I wish these people didn't exhist..

 

like as in Xbox the gaming console or Xbox as in a Scion Xb?

either way thats hilarious and i wanna see it.

 

Couldn't be any worse then the curb finders I'm about to install on my whip

 

Need those when your riding low and dirty!!!!!!!!

 

nope did the bypass, but thats not the intake manifold specifically
