Let's roast this guy... I mean ahem "educate" him....
I'll post a few of the dumbass comments he has made.
Watch out guys, this man is a ******* mechanical genius. He said so himself....
I was gonna try and make a useful post, provide him some links to the fact that the radiators are exactly the same as an SBC, minus a few external differences (recent thread on here) and links explaining just what reverse cooling is, and some info about the fact that aluminum would be better in a salt water environment vs cast anyway... but I figure why bother, he is on such a higher plane than the rest of us mere mortals that anything I could say would pale in comparison to his vast knowledge....
Here's a link to the youtube vid comments... http://www.youtube.com/comment_servl...%3DxZjCR_MR2mg
Lets burn this clown to the GROUND!

the two middle sets of intake bolts,
the holes are drilled at a diffrent angle from the other 8!!!
yea pn# 2104 Edelbrock no ****
this is not my first rodeo,,

I have a 91 X-cab Chevy I put a
LT-1 and 6spd in that runs like a raped ape,,,
I want to put a LT-1 in my 19.5ft Glastron
but I want iron vortec heads, not aluminum..

and a open set of hooker headers turned upside down,, **** normal, I want it loud!!
amazing the amount of dipshits you run into around here.....

I'm kinda leaning towards the pump being the reason for the reverse flow,,
I'm not "stuck" with any head,, you did know the caprices and impallas had iron heads huh??
mark Cambell up at Street & Performance sell the parts to get rid of the opti spark for a HEI and the Gear drive water pump,,

>>> meaning the Lt-1's water pump suction is aiming at the drivers side of the engine witch just so happens to be opposite of the ol TBI305's suction side,,, witch is on the pass side at the bottom,, get over it you are WRONG

"LT-1"= standard SBC w/mickey thompson (M/T) valve covers (i believe thats how they came?)
"LT1"= reverse cooled genII SBC, nothing similar between the two refering to the block, intake and heads,
LT1 block has different water pump ports and different coolant passages
LT1 heads have different coolant passaes
LT1 intake, NO coolant passages, and different bolt locations and angle's!
LT1 is a factory roller block
LT1 radiator and SBC radiator= NO DIFFERENCE (reffering to inlet/outlet). i know because the direct fit aluminum 3 row radiator in my NOVA originally made with a SBC, worked just FINE with my LT1
but i could be wrong once the "Mechanical Doucheness" "dieselDr." gets in here

I hope you school him well, he needs it, I think his surgery should be closed the self proclaimed diesel genius doctor that he is.

anyone that is a self proclaimed mechanical genius is a F*cking hard plastic helmet wearing Idiot.
that is the reason why he is self employed no-one else wants his a$s around..
sounds like crazyz28 or whatever his name is that frequents the forums

info about the original "LT-1", and i think i read the m/t valve cover **** somewhere else so i apologize for that comment.
"The LT-1 350 represented the last hurrah for the high-squeeze, solid-lifter small-blocks, as the '71 version made due with just 9.0:1 compression compared to 11.0:1 for the 1970 model."

2) LT1 block has different cooling passages than normal SBC
3) LT1 head has different cooling passages to match the block
4) Rotation of the water pump has NOTHING to do with reverse cool, the engine doesnt know which way the damn water pump turns
5) 305 vortec heads will NOT fit an LT1
6) TPI intake will NOT fit an LT1
7) Aluminum does better in corrosive environments than cast iron so your argument for that is retarded.
8) An F body LT1 radiator is EXACTLY THE SAME INTERNALLY as a standard SBC radiator... There are a few external differences such as mounting tabs for the fans etc..
9) The LT1 intake has NO provisions for coolant flow and the bolt holes are completely different, it will NOT bolt up to a normal SBC, vortec, etc.
10) All this just proves to me you are FOS and have nevere even had an LT1 apart, let a lone put one in your truck or boat.... If you had, you wouldn't say stupid **** like this, unless you are genuinely retarded. In which case I hope the next tractor you split open with your mechanical wizardy squashes your ******* head like a watermelon. Would do the world good to rid it of the ignorance you emanate.
