One longer post might eliminate several useless nonrearched threads from getting started.

Then again, the next quarter is coming up so a whole new batch of newbs will show up asking the same questions.

Bravo
Boom Shaka laka? Really?
I completely agree with you too!
Bingo

Mods should make a huge sticky that says click " search this forum".
Like this sticky:
http://www.ls1gto.com/forums/showthread.php?t=107781

Nobody wants to research, or read they want the answer NOW. They even will post a thread of who has the cheapest prices, really? Just click on the list of sponsors and look for the part your looking for. Or you can google the part number and you'll get thousands of hits. Lol killing me Smalls

Will I get a CEL if I install headers
Will I loose MPG if I get a cam
Will I loose my warranty if I install a CAI or LT's or C/B
Why is my car POPPING while I let off the gas?

I have absolutely no problem helping out here and there are many that i have sent PM's to so they dont make mistakes, especially newbies ie thepirate especially in saving someone some money and I DO STAND UP for the blue collared worker.


Everybody always says use the search tool. Well I'm here to tell you that search sucks. It never works the way it should. It's easy to start a thread and ask again. I don't blame anyone for doing this.


AS far as building big blocks in my crib, I built a small block in moms belly and threw it out first. I didn't want her to have a hard time trying to deliver a big block.

Nah...matter of fact, an aftermarket CAI probably protects your engine better than stock, oh, and while you're at it, you're increasing the enjoyment of listening to your car through the Axle backs. Good job.

Do you use the search button at the top of the page, in the grey bar? If so, that one does suck. It searches the entire site so you get a LOT of useless threads in that one. If you go into the forum you want to search and use the "search this forum" button, next to "forum tools", it's MUCH better. I have ALWAYS found what I was looking for using it. You may have to reword your search words from time to time but it works great.
