Default 82 TBI's etc

Threw into the trash two crossfire tbi's, tubing, injectors, etc. last week. Sat on my workbench for three years. Got in the way. Worthless junk.

Thought you would want to know.

Air cleaner goes into trash this week. Have two extras sitting in garage. Keeping one.

Too much 82 junk to keep.

Also pitched a chrome upper water hose and chrome water neck.

Am I getting tired of the Vette?

Hope not.

I've had this crapp in my garage for years thinking I would do something with it. Maybe I could sell it on the crossfire forum if I could get on there.

You could always post that kind of stuff on the Christmas "free" thread... I'm sure someone might like to have it.

I need the round connector that connects the air cleaner to the flex tubing that goes down to the manifold heat shield.

I'll be glad to take that spare air cleaner off your hands and if you have any of the emissions stuff left I need the front pipe.

Feeling lonely w/ the holidays and need attention or something? Who cares that you threw it away, you've been booted from the CFI forum now...how long ago? 2 years?? 3??? Get over it, reregistering under a false name and trolling didn't help a lot either did it. Seriously Larry..I don't know what's up w/ you but every once in a while you start nagging about it again.

I don't believe for a second you threw that stuff away..and if you did you're even dumber than I thought.

Don't ask me what's up with that. Just commenting initially that I was just doing some garage cleaning. Wife needs more room for her stuff. Had this stuff sitting in the corner for years. Its all gone now. Went out today.

Re: Crossfire Forum, yup, banned for good. Should not have been taken so harshly. Just commenting that if I could get back there and I could post stuff getting ready to go out, someone might want it. But can't, so out it went. Nothing more than that. Nothing more to be said from my corner. Sorry to have raised your BP, TT.

Sorry Larry for being so harsh but sometimes you just have to let things slide, I'm frankly getting a little sick of you bringing up the fact that you have been banned there every now and then, there's nothing I can, or want to do about it. We both know why you have been banned. The stunts you pulled after that were not very nice of you either but I never mentioned anything about it here or held it against you here, it's another forum and I don't want to hang out the dirty laundry. The person you have a beef with does not read or post here but I do and you know it. I sometimes have the efeeling that you are trying to put me against him or something. I have always tried to be polite to you so I hope you can just let it slide..for me, I really don't want to be reminded of it every time. If you want to sell your TBs or other stuff, why not advertise it here? Most CFI forum members are registered users here also so if you post CFI stuff for sale in C3 or C4 you would probably sell it...maybe even faster than over on CFI.

eBay or the parts for sale section here is your friend. Unless you are made of cubic dollars, you're foolish at best. Even then, you'd probably still qualify. Why throw away things with value...sell them, and have some money for a nice dinner or something like that.

Some things just have to be said.
