You've not put up one shred of proof to your position in this matter. You run a larger cam, aluminum intake and an overdrive transmission, the auto manufacturers didn't install those items in your vette originally and don't now, are those items just to make you think youve accomplished something and hype.....or do they actually produce more power...of course they produce more power and no the auto manufacturers didn't install them. Don't forget to buy your free health care after all the government says it's good...
He doesn't have any and feels no need for some. His opinion is indisputable, isn't it?

Jeez...this is fun to just sit back and watch......

He doesn't have any proof. Maybe he can't afford them...but I think it's just that his car provides all he can handle and he doesn't need any more. Which is fine either way....but all that factual data is just confusing him. He's getting mad now with more posts about double pumper carbs and t-stats. Starting to spiral out of control. It's going to be a long winter up there....

Wait 'till we tell him how header tuning would make his gen set more fuel efficient (which it could!).
