He sees the motor and says that I should change out my 408 stroker to a "Corvette motor, it would really make my car move out!" I just laugh at him. He then proceeds to tell me that he is gonna build a 90's style Silverado with a chopped roof, candy paint, 22"s, and a 400 smallblock with a blower. He asked me if I had ever heard the sound of a blower. I laughed at him and told him that I have grown up around cars. He says that his truck should pulls 7's to 8's in the quarter mile. I then decide just to get up and leave him sitting in MY office so I wouldnt take the chance of losing to many brain cells talking to him.

Sorry for the rant but this guy makes me want to kill dumb people!!
How fast have you had it up to? LOL......

Randy, you should have specified that you wanted to go fast and make real HP when you brought me the car. I would have for sure sold you a Corvette motor instead of that junk you have now

My favorite is when they think the LT1 is the current vette engine, and the LS1 is the under powered camaro engine.

I still think the best dumb *** question is. "So, how fast is your car?" You say it runs X in the 1/4 mile at Xmph. Then the dumbass say's, "No I mean whats the top speed?" That is the one that bugs me the most for sure.

I read on another car forum someone described the camaros....the z28 has the lt1 and the ss has the ls1......maybe that's why ppl think that th ws6s and the ss are the bad *** cars to watch out for.....yesterday I was told by a kid that the 98 ws6 was ranked #5 in the top 10 quickest cars ever...and that I if he had my car he would also put a 454 in it and make that bitch wicked........I asked him why when I could get 500+ hp and still get 20+ mpg with the motor I have.......he said it would just be badass....

I was driving to Austin on 290, and I was in Basstrop at a red light, and a man in a SS truck the new one not the 454. The kicker was he asked what I had and I told him and then he said it had a 454 and it would beat my car. I think those trucks even say 6.0L some where on them.

I personally think everyone should have to take an IQ exam before buying nice vehicles. Everyone that fails them should be shoved over to the Tercels, Corrollas and the ever so popular Hyundais!!!
