Given that in the U.S. it's 100% legal to kill people with your car, Stewart won't have to worry about any criminal proceedings. He'll probably end up settling a civil suit out of court for an undisclosed sum.
The only requirements for avoiding criminal prosecution are:

Changing parts out is never the hard part. Not for me anyway. Diagnosing the problem is though, and when it comes to EFI, you frequently, if not mostly, run into a problem that is intermittent. A lot of OBDII stuff has helped somewhat with the ECU detecting things like excessive current draw, but it's still in my

These feminist NPR quacks are so out of touch with us commoners it frequently makes me laugh out loud when I listen.
Go to any working class area, you know, where the poors live, and head to the autozone. You will see people coming in all day long buying parts that they themselves will install to keep their cars

No thanks. As a former poor, I had to ride the public bus/train to get around. Being trapped in a moving container with crazy, or violent (or both) people was not my idea of a fun. I suspect you either haven't actually used public transportation much or you look like Ronnie Coleman, in which case, no one fucks with

They do sell (sold?) palios in italy. I see them all the time.
Do you mean they don't sell any that looks like the one in the picture? In that case, I don't know. It has such a generic european hatchback look that I can't tell them apart. If you look down any street virtually every car is a hatchback egg thing that

This is literally the dumbest thing I've read today

And fatal crashes don't occur at lower speeds? If you are trying to eliminate the risk of travel, you are going to have a bad time.
This sort of reminds me of the fear of terrorism. You bring up an event that rarely happens and presents a very small risk for most people to justify limiting the freedom of all.
You

Maybe *you* can't control your car at those speeds, but, that doesn't mean that no one else can.
I live in southern Italy and although there are "speed limits" not a single one is enforced. I literally drive as fast as I want every day. So does everyone else. One thing you learn is that like anything else in life for

So you believe caging people who have harmed no one is a good idea? Only because they "might" hurt someone?
People die from stabbings, perhaps everyone that operates a knife should be jailed.
Why is it so hard for people like you to wrap your head around the concept of no victim no crime?
We already have laws against

Can you produce a shred of evidence that putting people in cages for speeding saves any lives?

Having briefly lived in Virginia and stayed there on a couple of occasions, I can tell you from first hand observation that Virginia is a police-state hell that sort of reminds me of what an American version of North Korea would be like.
I have lived in many places in the USA, traveled to several US territories, and

Moved to Europe and I bought an E39 530D wagon.
As an American car guy that's driven many a Small Block Chevy powered vehicle and added a Honda through marriage, I stupidly thought that 130k kms (about 80k mi) was low mileage and nothing to be concerned with.
I took it for a test drive, seemed to drive well, didn't get

I bet a 35k Camaro 1Le would humiliate both of these cars (even running even with them is a humiliation) and also be more practical than both.
German performance marques are in a sad state. They have been relegated to jewelry status.

"Stripped down" What is stripped down about the camaro? That AC/radio is optional (1000 bucks price and 50 lbs to the car) and it doesn't have trunk carpeting.
Whoa buddy! That's a window net, and driver's name decal from a full blown race car! /sarcasm

What are you basing this statement on? Please be extremely technical in your response.

P.S. Don't get me wrong about the axle part. I loves me some solid axle + panhard/tq arm action. I race a car with this setup and the advantage of an IRS on track is nil.

But your post reeks of bro-engineering. Bust out some numbers,

This is a reply to both of your posts. Keep studying and maybe you'll get past this pseudo-knowledge stage you have with engines. I suggest going to epi-eng.com and read all of the tech articles for a start.
Gearing and all that is chosen as a compromise for a total package. A smaller engine needs a lower gear to not

http://www.chevrolet.com/performance/cr… MSRP (you can get it cheaper) is $16, 503 for a brand new LS7. I don't know what kitted means but as far as installation cost, depends on the car. If it already came with an LS engine, I'd drop it in for 500. If it's a retrofit into something that came with a GenI sbc it

Man. I am grimacing on your behalf. You mean CAFE not CARB. CAFE = Corporate Average Fuel Economy. CARB = California Air Resources Board.
It's ok. Sometimes I screw up too but I usually catch it and delete it before I look too foolish.
If you edit your post I'll edit this one so it looks like you didn't blow it as

Genuine question: In what measured parameter does the LT1 not meet Euro 6 standards?

Displacement does not directly dictate fuel economy. The BMW S65 is 4 liters, v8, and got worse economy than the LS7.
