Was all of the name calling truely necessary? Come on...

 

So I'm brain dead for not researching a car I've never seen in my life, and never will... Got'cha! lol.


I think if I was going to do any major mods like that, I'd try and get an aluminum plenum or battleship... Aren't ours made of plastic?

 

No doubt what did i do for you to hate me so much2000BlazerSS!?! Sorry to the rest of you guys for causin problems here.

 

Yeah this is the article you are refering to 2000BlazerSS to... http://www.chevyhiperformance.com/th...chevy_history/

But they also put the 302 in newer vehicles.


Can i also take a pole on what everyone thinks a "KID" is??
Cause to me a kid is at most an 18yr oldwhich means that he was born in 1989. Not 1969 which is 20yrs earlier...i'm so blown away why2000BlazerSS is so angry?

 

If your near 40 and never heard of a 1967, 68, or 69 Z-28 Camaro your, uh, can't say it, but you are. And Chevy never made a 302 after or before the 67-69. Your thinking of the OTHER 302, built from 1968 to 1993. Hey J_rkle, YOUR the one bragging how smart you are, how many engines you've built, how much you know.

PS: double check those pistons, measure the diameter, are they 4 inches?, or 3 and 7/8ths?. An eighth inch smaller.

drperry: if you've never seen a 1967,68 or 69 Z-28 Camaro you'll have to keep your eyes closed for the rest of your life when you read Chevy magazines. They made 600 Z-28's in 1967, 1st year, 8000 in 68 and 23,000 in 1969 (don't hold me to those being EXACT, but those numbers are close enough).

swartz: mr knowitall never heard of a 67-69 Z-28?. drperry never saw one and never will?. Chevy built OTHER 302's?. And you wonder why I call him names?. OK. I won't

 

By seen, I don't particularly mean "oooo look, there's one!" I meant more of actually getting my hands on one, driving one, or planning on owning one. Am I going to go nuts and research a car I'll only ever see in a magazine or driving down the street? NO. There's no practical point to it. Same reason I didn't come to this board until I got a Blazer, lol. I don't religously browse car magazine racks, and I live in oil patch country, I've been in this city for 10 years, and I've seen ONE Camaro that's older than 1980.

And I know quite a few people who couldn't tell a 68 Camaro from a 68 Mustang... Why? Because their tastes don't cover muscle cars. But of course, that must mean they're total and utter.... non-intelligent people, by your standards, as it sounds.

 

Fact of the matter is that berating other members (ie. calling names) is against our forum rules and I shouldn't have to remind everyone of these rules, but here it is. I have taken the liberty to highlight a few key words/phrases:

So please respect one another.

Someone may know a lot more on a particular topic, but if that person comes across as a pompous, self-proclaimed know-it-all (even if said person is very knowledgable), that person will not be as respected for their knowledge as they would be if their delivery were different.

Anyway, we have gone way off topic. Please discuss the topic at hand if further discussion is necessary. Thank you.
