I have a feeling these guys are going to learn the difference between abrasion resistant steel and hot rolled mild pretty quickly.

IE8... I can't vote either, usually I can.

396 was actually 395, a 402 was a 396 with a .030 overbore. The poncho 455 was a 455.793" engine. Knowing the bore, stroke, and rod length of every engine I can find is sort of a hobby.

More like 27500 as stated in the article.

I'm glad someone else "gets it."

Actually, I laid out my plan. I'd have started the worlds most epic blog and used the car to compete in at least one event in every kind of motorsport on earth. Sort of like Bill Casswell but with not a shit car. I'd have had sponsors pay for as much as possible and died a pennyless hero leaving the car to a museum…

"Grandpa, tell us the story again about how ...oh wait that's right."

You were first with the obvious answer (that I can see) and for that I award you two internets, one which nibbles is currently snacking on.

The only thing douchier then doing an ebrake burnout in your rental spec mom car in the parking lot of F5 is being the guy filming said burnout with your smartphone.

Eerily enough, there weren't many civics in the crowd. There are a few tasteless S2ks ruining everything for true hondaphiles everywhere.

Good point.... because I do only see "saving a business" in a financial light. If Lutz were an operations guy who vertically integrated the suppliers they spun off, lowered their labor costs, and implemented a real quality program in an effort to increase their products resale values... then I would have considered…

Now where am I going to buy a turbo the size of my fist for 3 grand? Great, now i'll have to have everything custom made by a dedicated race shop for half the price. #thissuxxbro

Unless he whipped out his wallet and bankrolled the bailout alone, and personally negotiated the UAW retirement obligation deal himself, he didn't really "Save GM." There seems to be a concensus among automotive journos that Lutz is the second coming of Jesus inspite of his checkered track record of over priced over…

You forgot the "hawk" part too. Can't be a true conservative without blindly supporting Israel and assasinating 3rd world puppets after they come off the leash. Even Rand Paul starts to pick words carefully and look down when it comes to possible military cuts.

What's the word for "not-so-Divine Wind?"

I've read and re-read the closing paragraph and I'm still grasping to understand how GM is "Saved" other then it's still in operation. If that's the metric we're going by then in any scenario GM would have folded without taxpayer money and a complete suspension of the normal financial considerations viable businesses…

He'll do that. I think he was the first commenter I ever heart clicked *blush*

One of the problems is that there aren't any SECULAR CONSERVATIVES. The closest thing we have to an old school conservative is Newt, and he's a great guy to see speak... right up until he starts the jibberish about a mandate or grace or whatever. Though I'm a theist, most people would never guess by talking to me…

Who's creepier? Me for clicking it to rubberneck or Fox selling advertising on footage of people dying?

I can only imagine how hilarious it would be if it were a suicide bomber.
